I don’t know if I have to post this information in each topic I start. I am running xp pro sp3 and System Works 12 Standard. When I reboot my computer, the norton protected recycle bin does not show files in it when I know there are files there from before my reboot. The bin is not full either since I do empty it out throughout the day. In order to get it started, I have to go to services and stop and restart the norton protection service that is listed there. It is set up to start auto and running. It says that it is started and running also after rebooting. Once I stop and restart the service, then the files show up again and all is fine until I reboot again. I’ve reinstalled System works 2 times recently to get the idle full system scan to work. That ran on Monday night as it should for the first time. The recycle bin worked like it should after rebooting for about a day or 2 and then it started to have this problem. Actually, I had the same problem with System Works 2008 also and with 2009 too. Sometimes with 2008, it would fix itself and then start up after reboots ok. I think this happened with 2009 also when I first installed it around New Years Day. The options are set correctly in the recycle bin itself and also under settings for system works. Is there an easy way of fixing this so that it continues to work correctly without me having to go into services every time and stop and restart the service listed there? I know that reinstalling it, doesn’t fix the problem. My son has reinstalled System works for me twice recently as you know from another thread I had started. Hopefully, the idle full scan will run again this Monday without a problem. The odd thing to me is that it says that the service is running, but the files don’t show up until restarting of the service again. Thank you in advance.
