I did those steps mentioned at
http://forums.techarena.in/windows-xp-support/990228.htm and was able to get rid of this Dc 55 empty folder in my recycle bin HOWEVER I started having the following issues with my recycle bin:
1. When I restart my machine, I get " Recycle Bin on drive C: is corrupted. Do you want to empty the recycle bin for this drive?"
2. The recycle bin remains empty even though I unchecked " Don't move files to the Recycle Bin. Remove files immediately when deleted" option in the properties.
I downloaded and run latest Service Pack 3 but it didn't fix the issue. Also Googled some advice which didn't help.
I know this is a different topic, SuperDave. I appreciate all your help with the previous issue which HAS BEEN RESOLVED. Now , should I start a different thread on this ?
P.S. Some folks believe this may be due to INFO2 file corruption. I tried to look it up on my machine but didn't find it.
