Just done the latest XP update and now files in the
recycle bin are invisible - I delete stuff to the bin, it
is there but does not show!
 
Tony,

IMPORTANT: All the files deleted previously [present in the R.Bin] will be erased permanently.

Create a dummy notepad document and save it. Delete the file and let it go to recycle bin. Now, empty recycle-bin

Solution 2: You may want to delete the Recycled folder or follow Kelly Theriot's repair solution. (Deleting the info2 file). You may need to restart Windows after that. See: Troubleshooting the Recycle Bin: http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_qr.htm#rb

Most welcome. BTW, the problem is due to corrupt info2 file.
