Investigating Windows Vistas Recycle Bin Properties
Saturday, July 8th, 2006
I recently wrote a tip for the Windows XP newsletter titled "Reducing the size of the Recycle 
Bin" in which I discussed importance of reducing the size of the Recycle Bin from its default setting of 10 percent. It’s a simple procedure but my point was that the Recycle Bin’s 10 percent setting was originated back in the Windows 95 days when 100MB or less hard disks were the norm and now that 100GB or more hard disks are the norm, 10 percent was really overkill for the size of the Recycle Bin.
In any case, the reason that I bring this up here is that I recently began investigating Windows Vista’s Recycle Bin and discovered that the percent setting has been replaced by an actual megabyte setting, which brings the configuration more in line with the with today’s hard disk sizes. In addition to this change, I found some other interesting changes. Investigating Windows Vista’s Recycle Bin Properties
