Hi,

I decided to clean out my recycle bin. But when I clicked on the file,
nothing happened: the contents never appeared.

I'd be grateful for some help.

Thanks, Dan

Hi Dan,

If I understand the problem correctly, the new window that you're referring to, is the Recycle Bin, but the list of deleted files are not displayed?

Hi Ramesh,

Yes, that's right, but the problem seems to have solved itself. All is
well, and we'll never know what the problem was.

Thanks so much for your help.
