Hi !
I have a problem with Windows 98 SE Recycle bin. If a large file (say around 2MB in size ) is sent to the recycle bin. When the file is deleted the recycle bin just hangs and I have to use control/alt/delete to end the Task. If a smaller size file is deleted it does not hang. Also on using the shift/delete combination the file is always sent to the recycle bin instead of permanently deleting the file. How do I solve these two Problems? Please help.
Pran.

To change the operation of your Recycle Bin, right-click the Recycle Bin icon on your desktop, then select Properties. In the Recycle Bin Properties dialog box, you can specify the percentage of hard disk space you want to set aside for Recycle Bin storage. If you have more than one local drive, you can choose between configuring the drives independently, or using one setting for all drives. MAybe yours is set to low?


You can also specify whether or not to display the Confirm File Delete dialog box when you send items to the Recycle Bin, or select to have files deleted immediately, rather than being sent to the Recycle Bin.
