I have a number of items in my recycle bin, but I can not see them. I know
they are there. I have turned on the option to see contents of system
folders but it doesn't make a difference.

Help!!!

It's a common problem. There's probably some file corruption. The usual
quick fix is: Delete any file (just to make sure there's something in the
bin).

Then, with the Recycle Bin CLOSED, right click the Recycle Bin desktop icon,
select: Empty Recycle Bin, and when the Confirm File Delete dialog box
comes up, click the OK button. Then reboot your system. After doing
the above, any deleted files should now list correctly in the Recycle
Bin.

Doing the above should fix the problem. But, you will lose any files that
were PREVIOUSLY in the Recycle Bin.
