    Sup Dudes,

    Lately my files haven't been going to the recycle bin, they just disappear when I select to delete them. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Thanks,
    Nate

    Right-click on the Recycle Bin and choose "Properties".

    On the "Global" tab, Uncheck the box that says, "Do not move files to the Recycle Bin...."

    hope that helps, should do.

    It is unchecked...that is the problem. I have not knowingly changed anything and its just not working. THanks for the tip though.

    Sometimes the RB misses files, also large files get deleted and miss the RB alltogether.
