Default Recycle Bin Grayed out

A friend who is running XP says when he opens his Recycle Bin the Empty
Recycle Bin is greyed out. Any ideas as to what he has done?

Sorry if this is cross posted but I have tried to post this message twice to
XP General newsgroup but my post does not show up on my PC.

TIA

B.W.

Thanks for that advice. As this friend is very new to computers and it look
like a Registry problem I'll suggest he gets someone who knows what they are
doing to fix if for him.

Many thanks

Hi,

Merging that edit won't cause any harm.
