[RESOLVED] Is my recycle bin empty or not?

I'm in the process of deleting a lot of old stuff from my drive and using Treesize to see what the large files are. I have emptied the recycle bin and rebooted, but Treesize is finding 13 GB of files in the $Recycle.bin folder. Why are they there, and can they be deleted?

Adjust the size of the recycle bin. 13 GB is just to darn much.

Thanks for the reminder, this darn thing was set to 25 GB, so I set it to 1000 MB.

Are there multiple users on the system?

I ran "rd /s c:\$Recycle.Bin" and access is denied. How do I run it as administrator?

Never mind, found it.

It worked! It's now empty. Strange thing, I am the only user for the system, however it was upgraded from windows 7 so maybe the recycle bin junk was left over from before.

It most likely was.
I just upgraded last night myself.
