Do thumb dirives have their own Recycle Bin?
Win7 SP1.
I notice that when deleted files from a thumb drive are observed in the Recycle Bin, these disappear when the thumb drive is removed, only to reappear when the thumb drive is reconnected. I assume that the "empty recycle bin" will delete files from the computer and the thumb drive, when connected, and any wiping software will attend to any drives plugged in. Peter

Peter Mine never appear in the Recycle Bin; and I've just been checking the Bin Help file and it shows no option for doing that. The dialogue I get with delete from a thumb drive asks "Do you want to permanently delete this file?" as opposed to deletes elsewhere which ask "Do you want to move this file to the Recycle Bin?" Ed

Ed Curious. Mine appear in the bin until I unplug the thumb drive, or delete them.
