To empty the rest of the Recycle Bin, double- click the icon on your desktop and from the menu that appears click Empty Recycle Bin. If you find any items that have been deleted incorrectly, you can right-click them then select restore.
Empty your Recycle Binįirst, check that there's nothing in the bin tha t you wan t to keep. So it makes sense not to let the Recycle Bin fill up and instead to get into the habit of emptying it regularly - perhaps at the end of each day. Just as you can take a scrunched-up piece of paper out of a real wastepaper basket, so too can you recover a file from the Windows Recycle Bin. When you send a file to the Recycle Bin, it hasn't actually been deleted. When you delete a file on your computer, it goes to your Recycle Bin - but it's not deleted yet.
