Windows 10: All Googled fixes for getting newly added / recycle bin restored files to populate on the...

The subject pretty well covers it. I have Googled many fixes but they do not work. If there is something in Windows that insists on putting all new files added and restored from Recycle on the right there must be a way to switch it to the right. I am familiar with the Registry if there is a hack there. Or let's call it a fix not a hack.

I've changed the right click>View settings as per Google
I've changed the right click>Personalize settings, such as un-checking Allow Themes to Change the Desktop Icons.

Is there a Registry hack to change that. Possibly a Group Editor change?

Thanks so much! jack ":-Dx

recycle bin

Hi George,

To prevent your files from being deleted from the Recycle Bin, we suggest increasing the maximum file size your Recycle Bin can keep by following the steps below:

• Right click on the Recycle Bin icon.
• Under the Settings for selected location, select Custom size.
• Fill up the box for your allotted maximum file size for your Recycle Bin.

Restoring Many Files from Recycle Bin


I'm stuck here - need some help.

I have an external USB drive that I keep my music files on, and I decided I wanted to clean up the hundreds of systems files left behind from Mac OS X. They're everywhere on this USB drive and I wanted to remove them, since I work with hidden system files turned ON in Windows 10.

I searched for all of these hidden files, and sent them to the Recycle Bin. There are SO MANY files that it literally chokes the best Dell Precision towers I work with when you open the Recycle Bin. I wanted to check one last time before I empty the Recycle Bin and make sure there isn't something I want to actually keep.

But for some reason I can't seem to see these files in the Recycle Bin - it says "working on it" but nothing ever changes, even after hours of waiting. There is a green progress bar across the top, but it never ends and the files never appear listed in the window below.

At this point I'm stuck and I can't empty the Recycle Bin and I can't restore these files. I suspect there are SO MANY files that the system can't list them or restore them.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

 

recycle bin

First of all, I do know how to restore a document from the recycle bin. HOWEVER, when I open up the recycle bin, once it is done buffering, it closes itself and I cannot get to the document. Suggestions on how to fix this, please!!
