Recycler IS the recycle bin directory for NTFS partitions.
You can not right-click and choose Empty on that folder. You must go within the folder and then right-click on the subfolders...or simply delete all of the subfolders.
You'd think that with this latest incarnation of NT that's supposed to bridge the gap between home & work environments that they'd make NTFS a bit more user-friendly, so that ppl used to doing simple things like using the recycle bin don't have to change their way of doing things.
Check out www.xteq.com and download X-setup 6.2. It includes options for disabling NTFS features.
Cool, I I didn't realise 6.2 had gone final.
[B]Why is security so much of a concern for you? As long as you assign permissions there is no trouble whatsoever and if your part of the admin group you don't even need to do that.
I don't mind having security [B]if I have a need for it, but in this instance I don't. I'm the only person with access to this machine, & it's just gonna be used for video files. Also, & I realise this sounds trivial, but HTF do I delete the System Volume Information folder? I've turned off monitoring for that drive, & I tried turning its Read Only attribute off, but when I look @ its properties again it's on again. I understand how with the C:\windows & C:\Program FIles folders, etc, that there is stuff that's protected, but if i can delete the SVI folder on my FAT32 partitions that aren't being monitored, why can't I do it on my NTFS drive? Don't tell me
that's another feature of NTFS as well???
