In trying to delete about 17 JPEG photo files from
the "My Documents" window, I click on the file or files,
then on the "delete this file " or "delete these files",
then "yes" to "Do want to send this file to the recycle
bin". They appear to delete and they do appear in the
recycle bin, but more and more of those same files appear
in the "My Documents" window, i.e. "Copy 128 of
2200033767 768 x 512 JPEG Image". The more I delete the
more appear ! I can't get rid of them ! Help !
 
When you use the Ctrl key to delete files, you are making copies because you
are dragging the files you are clicking on. Hold the Ctrl key down, click on
the file you want, REMOVE your finger from your mouse and then move the
pointer to the next file you want, click on it, REMOVE your finger......Then
press on Delete
Same with the Shift key. Click on the file you want, remove your finger from
the mouse, hold the Shift key down, move the pointer to the file you want
and click on it, to select all the files between the first and last. Then
press on Delete.
Don't forget to empty your Recycle bin.
