Guest b11_ Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 The other day I saw the messages below: The Recycle Bin on H:\ is corrupt. Do you want to empty the recycle bin for this drive? The Recycle Bin on I:\ is corrupt. Do you want to empty the recycle bin for this drive? How does one remove the corruption?
Guest R. McCarty Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Re: Recycle Bin The Recycle Bin(s) have dedicated sub-folders. One for each user who has logged onto the machine. They are named to match the SID (Security Identifier) for the user. When a Bin becomes corrupted it usually needs to have one ore more of the user sub-folders replaced or emptied.

Guest R. McCarty Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Re: Recycle Bin Use Windows Explorer and double-click Recycler. If your Explorer views include System/Hidden and all extensions you should see your SID folder. If using XP Home you may have problems with ACL Rights and would have to boot Safe Mode and add your username to the ACL for the Recycler and grant yourself Full privileges. Once that is done you should be able to navigate into Recycler.

Guest Script Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 RE: Recycle Bin If you don't need any files in the Bin, rt. click rec.Bin>choose properties>click Configure Drives Independently>Go to each drive that's corrupt; check "Do Not Move Files to the Recycle Bin">[i don't think you have to reboot here, but it won't hurt to.] Open My Computer>choose each drive, and Delete the Recycler Folder [the corrupt drives]. Reboot. Go back to Rec.Bin>Prop's> Chk. the "Use One Setting For All Drives" option. If the corruption is [Your Username], it may fix this.
