[QUOTE="stevo-m, post: 467102, member: 24408"] Just wondering what the difference is between the options to 'empty trash' and 'secure empty trash'. I notice that when you select 'secure empty trash' a dialogue box says that emptying the trash this way means no files can be recovered. Does that mean that emptying the trash the regular way allows for recovery of files later? How would I go about recovering an accidentally deleted file? [/QUOTE]
