Recycle Bin

[MarkC]

Hi,

Using XP Pro SP2 and I am not sure, but is it possible to set the Recycle
Bin to automatically empty each time you log off? If so, where?

If you have XP Pro then you can set to run a script(that will clean recycle bin) when
you log-off.

The Recycle Bin protects you against deleting a file and later realizing
that you needed it. If you emptied the bin each time you logged off, you
would be throwing away a good part of that protection.

That makes no sense to me. I don't recommend doing it, but if you really
don't want the protection, just disable the use of the Recycle Bin entirely.
