Hi,

I decided to clean out my recycle bin. But when I clicked on the file,
nothing happened: the contents never appeared.

I'd be grateful for some help.

Thanks, Dan

What happens when you right-click on the Recycle Bin and choose "explore"?

Hi Ramesh,

In that case a new window opens, but it never shows anything.

By the way, in case it matter my operating system is Win XP Pro, SP2.

Thanks for answering.

Hi Dan,

If I understand the problem correctly, the new window that you're referring to, is the Recycle Bin, but the list of deleted files are not displayed?

Hi Ramesh,

Yes, that's right, but the problem seems to have solved itself. All is
well, and we'll never know what the problem was.

Thanks so much for your help.
