How can I (if I can) add a network drive to my Recycle Bin List?

[Guest mrkylep]

What I need to do is add a network drive to my Recycle Bin list of drives.

The reason is that when I delete files from the network drive I cannot

retrieve them (as they don't go to my computer's Recycle Bin and they don't

stay on the server). When I open the Recycle Bin Properties, it only lists my

local and connected external drives (USB), it does not list my network

drives. Is it possible to modify this list to add my network drives?? Thx.

You can't do it, restore the deleted files from your back up or use a

third party solution for a network Recycle Bin.

The Windows recycle bin doesn't work on network drives....you can't change

that. Perhaps some third party software would do it for you (I don't know of

any offhand, but google for it).
