& Security |
The Recycle Bin provides a safety net when deleting files or
folders. When you delete any of these items from your hard disk,
Windows places it in the Recycle Bin and the Recycle Bin icon
changes from empty to full. Items deleted from a floppy disk or
a network drive are permanently deleted and are not sent to the
Recycle Bin.
Items in the Recycle Bin remain there until you decide to
permanently delete them from your computer. These items still
take up hard disk space and can be undeleted or restored back to
their original location. When it fills up, Windows automatically
cleans out enough space in the Recycle Bin to accommodate the
most recently deleted files and folders.
When you delete a file in any Windows system you're only
informing the operation system the space in the disk the file
uses can be overwrite in the future by another file. The content
of a deleted file is still written on the disk and can be easily
recovered from the recycle bin or can be extracted using
undelete or another recover tool. |
