The NT 4.0 Recovery bin is replicating files that were deleted. What would cause this to happen? Has any body ever heard of this happening before?

Hi,

It sounds like the files aren't so much being replicated in the recycle bin as being multiply deleted.

You can have more than one identical file (same file, same location) in the recycle bin.

I'd be looking to see if the file is being deleted from its location (and re-established there) multiple times somehow before looking for replication within the recycle bin itself.

Cheers,
Tim.

If you mean that looking in the Recycler on a remote machine shows files deleted on your local machine, then yes, it does. The Recycle Bin's properties are such that you only see the files deleted on your current machine even if you look in the Recycled folder on a remote machine using explorer.
