All of a sudden nothing is going into the recycle bin. Where is it going?
Discussion is locked
The stop in the recycle bin is OPTIONAL! You didn't reveal if you checked the recycle bin PROPERTIES. Also, files deleted from DOS prompts don't land in the recycle bin.

Thank you for the reply. No settings had been changed for the recycle bin. In Dec. Norton Sy. Works 2004 flashed a red box on my screen that it couldn't virus scan e-mail. Much communication with Norton and following all procedures never solved anything. I now use a different Virus program and had taken out all Norton files. I used Norton utilities run from the disk to run WinDoctor not thinking a lot of Norton files would go back in. This is when the recycle bin stopped functioning in the past week.
Sadly, I didn't know that you had such installed.
For now, you need to uninstall Works with Symantec's help to get back to a normal stock and boring recycle bin.

Just a recap..NSW 2002 worked fine..NSW 2004 caused major problems.re: knocked out MSN (Norton said it was not them but a MSN problem) I took out NSW 2004 and had to reload MSN (it works fine now). After running WinDoctor from the disc last week(for the 1st time since taking nsw out) I have a Symantec folder in programs. I deleted the folder and lots of things stopped working. I put the folder back in (from the recycle bin) and that's when the problem begin. I 'm unsure which shared dll's to get rid of. I have instructions to get rid of 2002 but not 2004. NSW 2004 has now admitted they have some problems. I'm won't be using NSW again. Too many problems.
Where are the deleted items if they aren't in the recycle bin?
