My recycle bin is no longer working, when I go and delete a file it does not go to my recycle bin. Could I have changed a setting somewhere? If so, where is this setting? Could it be anything else? thanks

1. Right click Recycle Bin and choose Properties.
2. Select Global tab.
3. Click "Use one setting for all drives"
4. Uncheck "Do not move files to the Recycle Bin."
5. Set "Maximum size of Recycle Bin" to the value you want.
6. Click OK.

I have a desktop with simular problem, but the Recycle Bin settings are correct, however when deleting from the desktop the confimation is for permanent delete not going to the recycle bin, however if deleting from the D: drive it does go to the recycle bin.
The bin is set to 'one setting for all'.
Is this a group policy or registry change?
