I have made a direct copy of one external hard drive to another.
When I use the DOS /S command on the new hard drive, a number of sub directories in the format are shown

G:\D20110830\$RECYCLE.BIN\S-1-5-21-667334652-3244449047-1981859919-1000\$R52DZKM\

The sub directories contain thousands of files which presumably take up space on the new drive. I cannot see these files using Windos Explorer.

How can I make these files visible in Windows Explorer and delete them?
