Having problems with message search?
I seem to have a problem with my "recycle bin". Not sure what I have
done to my machine, but nothing goes to the "bin" anymore. It just
disappears into cyberspace. Now, I don't have the option of
restoring an item that I may have deleted in error. Hope you can
help me with this dilemma.
Thank you. JW
Dear JW,
Either you have installed some software that empties your recycle
bin on a regular basis, or your recycle bin settings have been
changed. Here is how to change them back.
On your Windows XP or Vista desktop, right click on your "Recycle
Bin" and then click on "Properties".
In the "Recycle Bin Properties" window that appears, you will see a
few simple options. Look for the option that says, "Do not move
files to the Recycle Bin. Remove files immediately when deleted".
In Windows XP, If there is a check mark in that box, click on it to
remove the check mark.
In Vista, just click on the radio button in front of the "Do not
move files" option and it will be selected.
While you are in the "Recycle Bin Properties" window, you can also
change a couple of other settings. If you don't like being asked
"Are you sure you want to send this file to the recycle bin" each
time you try to delete a file, you can remove the check mark that
is in front of "Display delete confirmation dialog"
In Windows XP, you can also move the slider to make your recycle bin
larger or smaller. In Windows Vista, you simply type in the size
(in megabytes) that you want your recycle bin to be.
Once you have finished making your changes, click the "OK" button at
the bottom of the window to save your changes.
