Hi

When I empty my Temp files it says that they will go into my recycle bin, but they don't seem to. Is there another recycle bin I have yet to find.
Regards
Marcia

Not 100% sure about this Marcia but it may be that you have your recycle bin properties (right click) wrongly set. I've seen cases of programs like Norton etc. take control of the recycle bin as well. Personally I don't want the contents of my temp folder in my recycle bin as some nasties can still operate from there (and from within system restore). If any normal files you delete do go into your recycle bin then I wouldn't worry too much tbh.

Hi Phil

Thanks for info.

I right clicked Recycle bin & opened tab Explore, an awful lot of things appeared some I recognized & some not. Would you recommend that I can select all & delete quite safely.Incidentally, I am not with Norton but with AVG9.

Regards
Marcia

Hi Phil
I think I am going bonkers, if not totally confused, ignore my last question as I have solved it.
Thanks for help.
