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.

Let us know if you need further assistance.

 

How did this file get in my recycle bin?

I just switched on my pc and saw the recycle bin 'full' icon. (Now I'm a tad obsessive over the recycle bin, I empty it as soon as there's something in it because the 'full' icon looks untidy *Eek! )
So I'm sure I powered off my pc yesterday with an empty bin.

Clicking on the properties, it says the file was deleted 4 minutes ago. *Wtf :wtf: I just powered up the computer and didn't delete anything.

It's some temporary file, probably nothing important but I'm curious how come it put itself in the bin by itself. I have no 3rd party software to clear cookies or do 'sweeping' on the pc...
