I don't have a problem with emptying the recycle bin. I want to get rid of
the pop up asking me if I am sure I want to delete file. Thank you anyway.

According to the help/documentation, if the "Do not move files to the
Recycle Bin" is checked, the "Display delete confirmation dialogue" is
supposed to be greyed out.

On my XP SP3 system, my Display delete confirmation checkbox is always
available no matter what the other option is! Using conventional
methods, I can't grey it out even by trying.

What is your situation with your Do not move files checkbox and if you
change it can you then change the Display delete confirmation checkbox?

That is what the problem is. The option to uncheck the box where it say
"disable the file delete confirmation dialog" is grayed out and I can't do
anything.

Understood, but what is the status (checked or unchecked) of the "Do
not move files to the
Recycle Bin" option and have you tried that box both ways to see if it
changes the "Display delete confirmation dialogue" box?

Create then merge this registry file to remove the
Recycle Bin's delete confirmation prompt.

1. Copy below and paste into Notepad.

----------copy-inside-only----------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer]
"ShellState"=hex:24,00,00,00,37,a8,01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
01,00,00,00,0d,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,02,00,00,00

----------copy-inside-only----------

2. Save-as RecycleBin.reg (or any name + .reg)

3. Double-click or right-click and merge into the registry.

I did as you instructed and when I right clicked on it I get a message saying
that "This is not a registry file....You can only import binary registry
files from within the registry editor." I must have not did it
correctly...any suggestions?

I tried again and I got it to work this time, but option in Recycle Bin
properties to uncheck box is still grayed out. So I guess I will have to
keep getting that annoying question unless you come up with something new to
try!! Thank you very much for trying to help me.
