I have a similar problem with deleting/recycle bin with my new Vista Basic -
when I try to delete a file the dialogue box asks if I want to permanently
delete the file. If I hit "yes" the file disappears completely from my
computer. If I hit "no" it doesn't delete at all. There appears to be no
"send to the recycle bin" option and when I check for deleted files by
clicking on the Recycle Bin icon on desktop, no files can be found. In this
way I have inadvertently lost files which I wished to send to the bin - but
not immediately delete completely. Can these be recovered? What's wrong
with the delete/bin option?
