How to permanently delete my recycle bin?
I want to sell my computer, and permanently delete my recycle bin. There is a tab that says restore all deleted material, and I am afraid that will bring out my personal private deleted things. What to do please
The Expert answers:
First, delete it out of the recycle bin. This will not delete the actual info, which could still be brought back. If you Defrag the machine after you delete the information, anything left will be essentially destroyed. What would be left would be small pieces and parts, completely out of context…and it would not be retrievable without expensive, sophisticated software.
Of course, if you have the installation disks, I’d do a low level format. Get Dban (free, www.dban.org) and boot to it. It will write over everything, making it impossible to get anything back…ever. After that, you’ll have to reinstall any programs and drivers.

How do I find my Recycle Bin on my computer?
I had a virus on my computer and my mom took the laptop to a person at her work that got rid of it. The problem is, none of the items that were on the desktop are on the computer anymore, including my Recycle Bin, which means I can’t delete anything anymore…which is kind of a problem.
I’ve tried deleting things, and the computer says that it can’t find the recycle bin. Also, I have Windows 7.
The Expert answers:
Wow, you don’t press the Delete button in your keyboard?
