CCleaner - Unremovable Recycle Bin File
Solved
Hello,
CCleaner won’t delete a file from the recycle bin, which isn’t there anymore anyway.
Here’s an image: http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/3570/sansrea.jpg
The loading is stuck at 20% and doesn’t move. It’s really annoying?
Any idea?
Thanks in advance!

Problem solved!
I deleted the $Recycle.Bin directory (in MSE), and then the folder recreated itself. No trace of the stubborn file :D
Thank you! -
Sometimes it can take a certain amount of time
be patient for a while -
Okay, but beyond an hour, I don't think that's normal. :/

Oh yes
And if you empty the recycle bin directly, what does that do?
The file must be large
It's a game, right?
Otherwise, do a complete uninstall if it's still on the PC
---> Revo Uninstaller -
Already done all that, that's precisely the problem.
Even showing hidden folders, including $Recycle.Bin, and deleting everything. Nothing. :( -
Did you restart the PC to check?
-
Yes, several times.
-
Have you tried to properly uninstall the game instead of just deleting the folder?
Revo Uninstaller
is good for stubborn programs and files. -
Already done this :/
-
restore the file
and restart the uninstallation -
Impossible. The file is not found!

ContributorHi everyone, sorry to jump in but it happened to me once and when CCleaner is running, click on the registry, find the errors, fix them, repeat as many times as necessary until there are no more errors and then clean! See you!
