Anybody know what to do when the Recycle Bin
has "invisible" files in it? They don't list, but seem to
be there, and I can't delete them.
 
Are you the only user that logs into this machine?
If so, are you logging in as the Administrator?

Yes, I am the only user. I am not logging in
as "Administrator", but I am in the "Administrators Group".

If you have made the proper selections under folder options so you can see
all of the files on your system, you will see a recycler folder. Open the
recycler folder and you will notice a guid of type Recycle Bin. If
multiple users are using the machine you may see multiple guids. Double
click on the guids and see if there is anything inside. If there is, see
if you can delete it.
