Comment: I have 7 files in my recycle bin. When I try and delete them I get this message :-
Error deleting file or folder
Cannot remove folder WebEditor 5
Cannot find the specified file
Make sure you specify the correct path & file name. How do I clear this out

Reply: (edit)Try to go to Start >> programs >> Accessories >> System Tools >> Disk cleanup after clicking on Disk cleanup then check Recycle Bin or you can try to restart your computer and see if it works.

Reply: (edit)I didn't see my reply to your post Jimmy - will try again
Tried all of these - nothing is removing these. Now another has popped up - it was an empty folder I created called programmes for CD - I didn't use it - and sent it to the recycle bin. Now everytime I try and empty the bin, its asking if I want to get rid of both. Same thing everytime. Getting leary of using the recycle bin again :-(
Might just stick to the incinerator from System Mechanic
