Cannot empty Recycle Bin under XP Home. System Freezes.
Task Manager indicates "Not responding"
 
Open the recycle bin and click on a file. hit the delete
key. select several files and hit the delete key ...
select them all and hit the delete key ... worked for me
when I had that problem.
 
Hi John,

This seems to work for many: Make sure that something is in the Recycle Bin
(delete any file). With the Recycle Bin closed, right click and choose:
Empty Recycle Bin. When the confirm box appears, click ok. Reboot. Now the
Recycle Bin should work correctly.
