Hi All...

I have a bit of a strange problem with my XP Home
machine... I have noticed the last couple of days that
when I send something to the Recycle Bin, the items
disappear totally. In other words, they are removed, but
arent in the Recycle Bin. I have done full searches for
the deleted items, but Windows cant find them.

I am running Tweak Now Power Pack and went up and down
the list of settings to see if somehow I have changed
some settings to make it do this.... nothing.

Please help...
 
Right click on the recycle bin - properties tab and uncheck box Do not move
files to Recycle Bin:Remove files immediately when deleted
 
Thanks... I knew it was something silly like that, just
couldnt figure it out. Appreciate the help.

Hi. Right click the RecycleBin and click on properties. Now uncheck the box
that says to delete files right away. Good luck.
