    I just deleted a folder with a lot of information! Emptied the recycle bin :/ Any solution?


    I really need the documents in that folder and there were a variety of them (jpg. docx. .pdf)

    I don't even know how it went to the trash bin but yeah... It got deleted and now I really need help recovering it.

    Any solutions out there?

    delete downloads and empty the recycle bin

    Simple!

    • To delete all downloads: Open the Downloads folder, then delete the lot.
    • To empty the Recycle Bin: Right-click it, then left-click "Empty Recycle Bin"
    There is a lot of power in right-clicks!

    Empty Recycle Bin?


    Hi, New here . Lots of questions, but for now....How do I empty the recycle bin. I found how to access "Recycle Bin" on desktop but when I click on it a long list comes up and I have to delete each one individually and even that does not remove them. Where is the old reliable Empty Recycle Bin ??
