Installation (skip this section in case of installer program) Unzip the rbin.dcp file into the folder where DClean.exe resides. That's it! The plug-in is ready to use. 2. Notes To be able to use this plug-in, you will need shell32.dll version 4.71 or higher. If you do not have this minimum version, the Recycle Bin item will not appear in the list. On the test machines, Disk Cleaner reports larger sizes of items in the recycle bin than Explorer. Apparently Windows allocates storage space for the files in chunks of 32 kB (at least on Win9x) and reports this size to applications querying the shell about the recycle bin. Therefor all file sizes are rounded to 32 kB chunks. 3. History Version 1.0.0.8: There's a bug in the Windows ME & Windows 2000 recycle bin functions. A number of 0 bytes and 0 items will always be reported, even though the recycle bin is not empty (note that this did not prevent correct cleaning of the recycle bin). A workaround has been made for this. Version 1.0.0.5: Changed a few compiler settings, which has a smaller size of the plug-in as a result. Version 1.0.0.3: First release. 4. Bugs and feedback If you find any bug, please report them to: disk_cleaner(at)xs4all(dot)nl Thanks. 5.
