Editor to share with you how to fix the problem that the Windows 10 deletion project is not in the Recycle Bin, I believe most people do not know much about it, so share this article for your reference. I hope you will learn a lot after reading this article. Let's learn about it together.

Some Win10 users may be surprised when the Recycle Bin does not contain recently deleted items. The Recycle Bin is a repository of files deleted using File Explorer, so you usually want to see recently deleted files there. However, the Recycle Bin does not always contain deleted files.

Where do deleted files enter in Win10?

Deleted files usually go to the $Recycle.bin system folder, where you can restore them. The $Recycle.bin folder is located in the root directory C:. However, because it is a hidden folder, you may need to adjust some file explorer settings to see $Recycle.bin in the HDD root directory, as shown in the snapshot below. You do not need to view this folder because there is a direct shortcut to the Recycle Bin on the windows 10 desktop.

If you cannot find recently deleted files in the Recycle Bin, they may have been deleted. The files in the Recycle Bin are not actually deleted, but you can still delete the files first without deleting them first. When the user wants the file to be in the Recycle Bin, the user may have some confusion.

This is how to ensure that all files enter the Recycle Bin and repair folders that do not include deleted files.

1. Do not hold down the shift key when deleting a file

One way you can bypass the Recycle Bin is to hold down the Shift key while deleting the file. Holding down the shift key deletes the file without putting it in the Recycle Bin first. Therefore, make sure that the Shift key is not pressed when deleting the file.

two。 Do not delete files on the flash drive

Note that the USB flash drive does not contain the $Recycle.bin folder. You can delete files from an alternate HDD partition to the Recycle Bin, but not directly from the USB drive. Therefore, if you delete files from your USB storage device, this may be the reason why you cannot find them in the Recycle Bin. Before deleting the USB stick file, move it to the hard drive.

3. Do not use the command prompt to delete files

Also note that the command prompt does not use the Recycle Bin. Therefore, all files deleted by prompting bypass the Recycle Bin. Therefore, do not use prompts to erase files if you may need to keep them in the Recycle Bin.

4. Deselect do not move files to the Recycle Bin option

If no deleted items appear in the Recycle Bin, you may need to deselect the option not to move files to the Recycle Bin. To do this, right-click the Recycle Bin icon on the desktop and select Properties.

Then deselect not to move files to the Recycle Bin setting in the window below.

Click the apply button to confirm the new settings.

Press the OK button to close the window.

5. Increase the size limit of Recycle Bin files

The Recycle Bin Properties window also contains the Custom size option. This option allows you to resize files that can be deleted to the Recycle Bin. If you delete a file that exceeds the * value, it will not enter the bin. Therefore, entering a larger number in the * size text box will also ensure that more files enter the Recycle Bin.

6. Reset the Recycle Bin

The Recycle Bin that does not contain deleted items may be damaged. You can reset the Recycle Bin that is not working. This is how to reset the damaged Recycle Bin.

Use the Win key + X hotkey to open the Windows + X menu.

-- Select the command prompt (administrator) on the Win + X menu.

In the prompt window, enter'rd / s / Q CJV $Recycle.bin', and press enter.

Then close the command prompt and restart Win10.

Therefore, you can ensure that the Recycle Bin contains deleted files. However, keep in mind that you do not always need the Recycle Bin to restore deleted files. You can still use data recovery software to restore deleted files that are not in the Recycle Bin.
