recycle bin files disappeared

[Guest]

Hi, I moved a large file into my recycle bin and everything else, except for
this file, disappeared. I was wondering how to make the other files appear
again? I hope they're not lost. I certainly didn't delete those other files.
Thanks for any help.

Hi

If any files have disappeared from the Recycle Bin, and you didn't restore
them yourself, then they may have gone. If they haven't been overwritten,
you 'may' be able to recover them with a 3rd party 'Undelete' program:

If you haven't emptied the recycle bin, then they should still be in there.
Go into the recycle bin and select all the items you want and choose
"restore". It will place them right back where they came from... If you
have emptied it, then you are pretty much out of luck...

In the future NEVER place something you may want in the recycle bin.
If you think there is a chance you may want it later, create another
file for such a purpose.

So, I guess they're really gone. It's strange, I delete one file and all
the others get deleted as well. Oh well.

The file was large enough that Windows had to delete your old files to make
room for the one large. Right click the recycle bin, properties, global and
increase it's size.
