    I have been deleting files nearly upto 30GB I think(not at once but as a whole)... I have deleted those many files so that my system speed is not reduced. But I leave the files in the recyclin bin itself, so that when I need abck the files, I can restore. So what is the actual size of the bin? Is there any use in deleting from folder but leaving in bin?

    When your files are in recycle bin it doesnt free up the space until you delete them from recycle bin.

    I don't think its useful to delete from folder and keep in bin.
    Even when you keep it in folder or in bin it would take the same space.
    So, you need to delete it if you want to speed up your pc.

    For me - this is nonsense!
    If you want to restore files - better use software!

    Just remove them from your bin, The Recycle Bin = Useless.
