1136133 2010-09-10 11:28:00 I cannot empty it. It says Cannot Delete dc2: Access is denied.
Laptop. Win2k so cannot reinstall b/c winupdates has ended.

I have tried:
cd recycler
dir /ah
cd ... (long folder) and then delete it but access denied.

I put the hd into the pc
dir /ah
cd (long folder) - access denied. Cannot even go in.

1136134 2010-09-10 11:31:00 Tried changing permissions? SoniKalien (792)
1136135 2010-09-10 11:32:00 Can't even restore the files and change the permissions and redelete.

The Recycler folder is not visible - under the PC.
I have enabled hidden folders etc..

I think it's not visible using the laptop either.

I'll try a Live CD (Linux) and see if that works...
