Can someone help'? I can't see any of the items in the recycle bin. I can
delete a test file and the icon changes and it will tell me there is a file
in there when I go to empty it, but It doesn't show when I open the bin.
Thanks
Bob
 
IMPORTANT: All the files deleted previously will be erased permanently.

Create a dummy notepad document and save it. Delete the file and let it go to recycle bin. Now, empty recycle-bin

Solution 2: You may want to delete the Recycled folder or follow Kelly Theriot's repair solution. (Deleting the info2 file). That should solve it. You may need to restart Windows after that. Troubleshooting the Recycle Bin:
