Can't Empty the Recycle Bin

It's strange that in Vista RC 1 build 5600 I can't empty the Recycle Bin by
clicking the "Empty the Recycle Bin" button. To do that, I have to select
all and then delele them.

Do you have the same problem? Is it a bug?

Re: Can't Empty the Recycle Bin

Windy,

Did you install the Windows Search Toolbar in Windows Vista by any chance?
I ran into the same problem until I uninstalled it.The one from the Windows
Search site doesn't seem to work all that well with Windows Vista.

I haven't tried the Windows Live toolbar yet (from the Welcome Center in
Vista), but that may do the job after you uninstall the Windows Search
toolbar.

Re: Can't Empty the Recycle Bin

Bill,
Thanks VERY MUCH! But it seems that i've never installed the Windows Search
Toolbar. In "Programs and Features" window I can't find it either. Is there
any other solution to solve the problem?
