I'm running Windows XP. I installed a new internal hard drive, which is
working fine, but ever since I added that drive files I delete from my
original C drive do not go to (or show up in) the recycle bin. Just this
weekend I upgraded to SP2 and installed all the updates the Microsoft Update
site recommended, but I still have the problem.
 
Right click the Recycle Bin | Properties | Global tab |
Decide if you want to configure drives independently or to use one setting
for all drives |
UNCheck: Do not move files to the Recycle Bin.... | Check: Display delete
confirmation dialog

Do not move files to the Recycle Bin....
[[Specifies whether the items you delete are immediately removed from your
hard disk or the items you delete are moved to the Recycle Bin. Items moved
to the Recycle Bin are not removed from your hard disk until you empty the
Recycle Bin.]]

Display delete confirmation dialog
[[Specifies whether a confirmation message is displayed when you delete
files to prevent you from deleting files in error. If the Do not move files
to the Recycle Bin check box is selected, you cannot change this setting.]]

Hope this helps. Let us know.
