Constant (corrupt recycle bin(s))!

Hi Guys,

After installing both the RC and RTM versions of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 I have experiened a recycle bin error message stating it;s corrupt.

Upon further investigation I can see other have experienced a similar problem and I have used the following batch code to delete the corrupted Recycle bin.
rd /s /q E:\$Recycle.bin (I have 6 different lines to reflect each of my drive letters).

The bat file does resolve the error for a short time but it always comes back after a reboot. I was just wondering if there is a permanent fix for this to prevent me having to click on 6 error message when trying to delete a file.

Any suggestions will be appreciated

Kind Regards
Tylor

Have you tried creating a new user account to see if it also has recycle bin problems?

Try system file checker (sfc /scannow) to repair system files

Hi guys thanks for the replies..

I can confirm that the bat script does indeed delete the recylce bin's across the drives. The unfortunate thing it that the problem comes back pretty quickly.

I could try the new admin account, I would just be nervous about having to copy all of my user settings and configuration over to the new account.

Have any of you guys experienced the same issue?

The new account is just for testing.

Hi guys,

I created another Admin account and at a first glance the corrupt recycle bin message doesn not seem to appear.

Is there a way in which I can migrate my old account details seamlessly without causing any issues with (programs,settings,mce extenders) etc?

I obviously don't want to have to reinstall all of the programs again but I am guessing it's also not as simple as copying over the programdata/appdata folders and making some registry changes.

Suggestions are very welcome
Thanks again

What about all of the programs that are installed? will these still be usable (appreciate that they are installed on the same C: just thought registry entries may point to a different location)
