Hi everyone.
I am having an odd issue with one of my SSD drives not sending file to the recycle bin, even though in the recycle bin properties, I have it selected to do so.
I am running Windows 11 Pro 23H2 with build number22631.4169 on a Gigabyte X570 Xtreme motherboard. The board has 3 M.2 slots.
I have 5 internal SSD drives. 3 of them are M.2 drives (2 PCIE, 1 SATA), and the other 2 are 2.5 SATA drives. All the drives but one are properly sending deleted files to the Recycle bin. The one drive is a WD Blue 4tb SATA 2.5 drive. and no matter what size the file is or what type of file it is, it always gives me a prompt that says "Are you sure you want to permanently delete this file"?
All my drives, including this one that isn't Recycling files properly, are set up the same under the Recycle Bin properties the same way.
Under "Settings for selected location" I have "Custom Size" selected and "400000" typed in the Max Size box. All 4 other drives are behaving normally, but the WD BLue 4tb drive will NOT send any files what so ever to the Recylce bin, even though I have it set to do so.
I am the only user on this computer, I have Admin rights as the primary user, etc. I am stumped as to why this is doing this. Any ideas?
