Recycle Bin won't empty.
Recently I did a total nuke on my HD and switched back to Win7 from Win10. The reason is the software on an old game that I have played online for 25 years won't open on Win10. You do what you have to do.
Some how, a file called 'windows old' was added to my C: drive, and every time my virus protection does a scan, it is prolonged by the scanning of that file, which is essentially the same files it has just scanned. The switch was made over 3 months ago.
I've tried several times to delete the file, and it is so large, the deletion process is forever. Yesterday, I tried to delete it, and the system said the file was too large to go in the recycle bin, do I want to permanently delete it? I clicked yes, and just let it run. This morning I got up and most of the file was gone except for two folders, which I was able to delete to the recycle bin. Now when I open it and click on 'empty recycle bin' nothing happens.
Any thoughts and suggestions would be appreciated.
