Create a Recycle Bin for USB Drive & Removable Media

[ghanoom]

Your USB Drive or your removable media does not have a Recycle Bin unlike your desktop, and as such, anything you delete from it is just simply gone, with no option to recover it easily. You can however create a Recycle Bin for your USB Drive / Memory Stick / Removable Media using iBin and customize it to your needs.



The iBin software is a full portable program to work from any removable device in any Windows operate system and language environment.

Just unzip the compacted file and extract the iBin.exe file into any removable device folder. Run the iBin.exe and follow the instructions. The iBin will create the container folder and the necessary files system in the device’s root folder. Once the installation is done, the iBin work in the operate system background.

Just delete any file or folder using the Del key or a command in the right-click menu; the iBin will detect the action and offer the option to dump the files. The data selected can also be dumped or erased using hotkeys.

The iBin keep a track of every file and/or folder dumped, to be easily restored when necessary. If the dumped data is already present in the container, its name is modified.

Do read the Documentation & User Guide.

Um... no.

Completely and utterly untrue. (not you, ghanoom, but the application's 'workings' as it were.)

Your external drive does have a Recycle Bin, it's just a hidden System File, so if you show your system files, you'll see it. Believe me, I've gotten more then a few applications back that way.

This is just the simple way to pull it out of the $RECYCLE.BIN (the name of the folder on your external) to make it seem like it's a choice.

Linux and Mac users have to look for a .Trash_1000 folder, but it's there too. It's never fully deleted unless you've deleted it from either spot, and you've got a good chance of recovery if you didn't. Keep in mind if you've done a SHRED delete or a delete command that isn't just a simple Del key press (as this app says), you've lost it for good. In which case, Recuva's a friend.

Just so you know.

Hellnoire is right you can anytime recover your delete data using a good recovery software & I am doing this thing many time .

While hellnoire's right, I presume the iBin program is to help noobs understand it better...it's way easier for them to understand how to use iBin than to understand "hidden System File"...that would be alien language to them

True... but I just find it funny when companies market the solutions to problems that don't actually exist... at least my programs do something when I'm coding.
