Seems to me, when I was still using XP, there was a setting that
automatically emptied the Recycle Bin when I restarted the computer. I can't
find that option in Vista ... does it still exist? I sure can't find
it.........

Why would you want to give up "insurance?"

Really. Might as well bypass the bin completely and just have delete kill
the files outright.

I could see unscheduled reboots and crashes ending in tears.

Yes, it exists. In keeping with the Microsoft paradigm for new operating
systems, you must make 20 more clicks than you used to in order to get to
it.

What a ****!

Just trying to be smart rather than helping the guy.

Stop being a cretin and tell him what he wants to know.

There wasn't a setting to empty the recycle bin on startup in XP.
There may have been a 3rd party application or reg hack that did that.

If you are absolutely SURE you want to, you can bypass the recycle bin with
either individual files, or everything you delete, and Microsoft gives the
instruction how to do so here: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=320031

An aside to "Dirty Sanchez" if I may. /begin rant. Since you are anti MS,
this isn't the place for you to be, and your comments are not helpful or
appreciated. Soon all the regulars here will have you on ignore, so it is
wasting your time. /rant over

Emptying the Recycle Bin is only 3 clicks on your desktop. Do it when you
shut down.

Yes.. If it is automated you'll live to regret it.
