Re: Recycler folder on a TSE 2003 R2

Hi,

I don't believe that MS has a documented/supported method
for emptying the recycle bin for other/all users on a system.
With that said see below for more information.

Change your folder options so that they are set to display
hidden files and folders as well as *not* to Hide protected
operating system files. Once you have made that change
you will be able to see the recycler folder located off the
root of each drive.

The recycler folder contains a separate folder for each user's
recycle bin on that drive in the form of the user's SID. Before
deleting a particular user's recycle bin (and its contents) it is
preferred that they be logged off of the TS first. The user's
recycle bin folder will be recreated next time it is needed.

One common practice is to enable the group policy setting
"Do not move deleted files to the recycle bin" for your users
*before* your TS is put into production. This will prevent the
users from accumulating files in their recycle bins.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for your post.

<How can i show user's recycler folders>

1. Type cd recycler, and then press ENTER.

2. From the Recycler folder type dir, and then press ENTER. You may see
some
UserSID folders where SID is the security ID for each user who deleted
files in that
folder.

3. Type cd userSID, and then press ENTER.

<My objective is to delete all files in thoses folder, whithout to connect
on each session>

If you want to delete these files remotely, we have to modify their share
permission. This is obviously unsecure. You can consider using creating a
logoff script to perform this 'delete task'. In this way, you don't need to
connect each session to perform this task, while each end-use will
automatically empty his recycler folder when logging off.

About how to create this script, you can refer to:

Script Center
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/default.mspx

Fine a VBScript
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/scripts/default.mspx?mfr=true

If you encounter any problem to make a script. I'd like to suggest you post
script related questions to our MSDN queue. The engineers and communities
there are more specialized in creating script and will assist you in a more
efficient manner.
