Although the recycle bin is enabled both in Total Commander and on the Desktop, Total Commander deletes the files directly.

A: This happens if the recycle bin is damaged. To repair it, proceed as follows:

  1. Enable the display of hidden/system files in Total Commander (through the Configuration menu).
  2. On all drives, delete the directory called \recycled in the root of the drive. Warning: This empties the recycle bin!
  3. Delete one file in Explorer. This re-creates the recycle bin.
  4. Do not modify the content of the \recycled directories. To access the recycle bin, right click on the F8 button in Total Commander.
