Did you knew that you can increase / decrease the size of the Recycle Bin in Windows? On default the recycle bin size it’s set on 10% of the drive size, but if you delete a larger size file accidentally, you can’t retrieve this file from Recycle bin, so you see, this is why you should use the maximum storage size of the Recycle bin. But how do you change this?? It’s very simple!

  1. Right click on the Recycle Bin icon on the Desktop of your computer then go to Properties.
  2. Adjust the slider bar in the center of the screen from 10% to maximum size as you want.
  3. Then click OK button to save your new settings and exit the Recycle Bin Properties Window.
  4. Reboot your computer to have Windows fully initiate the necessary changes to your system.
  5. That’s it!! :wink:
