A fix it for what? There are different Fix Its for all kinds of different problems.An easy trick to try for corrupt recycle bins is to throw an empty Notepad file in there and then try to empty the bin, sometimes this empty notepad file trick fixes things. Just create a Notepad file, then delete it and try to empty the Recycle Bin and see what happens.If the problems persist then delete the Recycle Bin then reboot the computer, Windows will create a new Recycle Bin when you reboot. To delete the Recycle Bin run the following command:rd /s /q c:\recycler If you have more than one drive you will have to issue the command for each drive, changing the c: with the appropriate drive letter. If you have more than one user on the machine all recycle bins will be emptied. You need administrative privileges to run the command.John
