[QUOTE="Taleweaver, post: 7457360, member: 237261"] Okay...this is a pretty weird topic. :unsure: For starters, I'd say "don't use the recycle bin for anything that you may still need". Yes, this clutters your hard drive a bit more, but windows may throw the contents of the trash if it needs place to begin with. At the worst, you could even create a folder called "WillProbablyNeverNeedThis" or something similar. Move everything over there if you're done with it, and just clean it out every so often. As to the question itself: I would set the view to 'details', then sort everything there on original location (this arranges them by drive as well). Select everything not in you main drive, then erase all that. Oh, and as for myself...I just clean out the trash when I'm short on space. It's not unusual for me to have a trash can of a couple gigabytes in size, containing junk from months ago. Unlike IRL, files don't stink up the place. ;) Youkai thinks it's weird to do such things on (semi-) purpose. The examples you mention are accidents. The main idea is to avoid throwing something in the trash you may still need at all times. So in answer to that question: no, I've never had thrown away package beforehand (rather the opposite: we still have the package of e.g. my girlfriend's guitar, and she has it for over a month). The same for food packaging. I don't want to sound smug, but I just check these sorts of things before I throw them away. [/QUOTE]
