1222687 2011-08-12 05:20:00 I've right clicked on the recycle bin icon on the desktop, selected properties and all it shows me is the size of the drive.

I've opened the recycle bin, selected everything (CTRL A), right clicked on properties and it doesn't produce anything.

I'm sure I used to be able to see the total amount of junk in there - or was that XP?

Does that mean Vista can't do it? That's stoopid.

1222690 2011-08-12 05:41:00 If you select all the items in the bin window, the size should come up at the bottom. Driftwood (5551)
1222691 2011-08-12 05:47:00 Oh Yeah - bottom left - Durr....:stare:

Thanks Driftwood
