What Mr. Grey said.

I've never understood why people want to delete files but have them in the
recycle bin.

Are you meaning to say that on your copy of Windows XP (version unknown)
your files are being deleted instead of being moved to the Recycle Bin?

If so: Right-click on the Recycle Bin, select Properties and remove the
checkmark from "Do not move files to the Recycle Bin. Remove files
immediately when deleted."

So they can easily undo a mistake if they make one.

It's not exactly the same, but it's something like carrying a spare
tire in your trunk.

Even though I have very seldom needed to use it (the same is true of
my spare tire) I think having a recycle bin is great. What I wish,
though, is that instead of having to empty it when it fills up, it
would automatically delete the oldest file there whenever space is
needed for a new one.

When Recycle Bin reaches its capacity, doesn't it delete older files and
newer files are added?
