Recycle Bin Files Do Not Show Up in When Deleted

Having trouble with files not showing when deleted ?

Try this:‐

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.

If it didnʹt this could be the problem

Files not being listed in the Recycle Bin seem to be related to a corrupt info2 file.

To correct the issue (Fat32):

Go to:‐

Start > Run In the box type without the quotes “ **CMD”**

At the chevron ( > )

Type:‐ **CD \RECYCLED**

Then press ENTER.

Type :‐ **ATTRIB ‐r ‐s ‐h info2,** ( Note where the spaces are )

Then press ENTER.

Type:‐ **DEL INFO2**

Press ENTER. again

Finally

Type :‐ **Exit**

Enter


 * NOTE: ‐**

This deletes the damaged INFO2 file.

Windows will recreate this file as needed, automatically.

You can often restore files even if it is not being listed in the Recycle Bin by searching (Start/Search) for the files by name

Once you’ve found them rename them.

If the files still cannot be recovered, follow the steps above, then reboot.

They should now be listed.
