1% of my puny 80gb HD. Don't see why it needs to be any bigger.

Set to 2%, on my 250GB hard drive. Though it still says that I have 3.99GB reserved for it. Know why?

Try running CCleaner. See what that does.

I use CCleaner each day, and I did it once again today, but it did nothing. I also noticed that if I set it to 3%, it's still 3,99GB, and if I set it to 1% is 2,32GB... Any way to make it to be like.... 200MB? if it's impossible I'll definitively disable it because it's useless.

Looks like each drive has 4 gigs available to it. Good enough for me.

a-4-year-old · « **Reply #12 on:** January 07, 2009, 02:57:42 pm »

none, I empty it all the time.

LtKillroy · « **Reply #13 on:** January 07, 2009, 03:42:42 pm »

I tend to empty it when it had any more than like 5 things in it. But then I just packrat my files and never delete them (I have games I haven't played in years I haven't felt like deleting)

Lord Frunkamunch · « **Reply #14 on:** January 07, 2009, 04:12:58 pm »

^That. I just empty it every time I delete something. I'd remove the recycle bin and just use the straight-to-delete option if I weren't paranoid about my family doing something stupid.

Lol..I love these threads. Easy post increase.

158MB. Yay.

jrgp · « **Reply #16 on:** January 07, 2009, 04:27:39 pm »

In all honesty, I rarely use ubuntu/gnome's gui when it comes to deleting files and just use the command line's rm command, which there is no "undelete" for. After years of doing this, I've only accidentally deleted something important once.

The Specialist · « **Reply #17 on:** January 07, 2009, 04:33:47 pm »

I always empty the files in the Recycle Bin as soon as they're deleted.

Thinkto urself · « **Reply #18 on:** January 07, 2009, 05:39:26 pm »

About 7KB's.
