Is it safe to delete the $RECYCLE.BIN Folder? Pls Help?
Hello,
I got a usb 250gb hdd, and its got a folder called $recycle.bin
My question is, can i just delete it and have no problems? Thanks and tell me if you ever did it before.

Why don't you just hide it,
Hidden Files and Folders - Show or Hide
Doing so will reset the Recycle Bin for the drive that you deleted it on as outlined in the tutorial below. After restarting the computer, this file will automatically be recreated though. It should only be deleted if you are having a issue with your Recycle Bin as described in the tutorial below.
Recycle Bin Corrupted - Cannot Delete File or Folder - Vista Forums
Hope this helps,
