Corrupted Recycle bin after installing SSD
The Toshiba Satellite laptop boots up fine after converting from HDD to SSD . After several restarts, I suddenly get the message "Windows Recycle bin is corrupted etc " I deleted the items but the message wont go away .
Finally after a search , I ran at elevated command "rd /s /q C:\$Recycle.bin " it returned 2 items in $recycle.bin folder. I checked and indeed there were two items : Recycle Bin and a folder S-1-5-18 . After a reboot , the problem went away but some time later the problem reappeared.
I ran the sfc scannow routine and it returned no errors . I ran the command "rd /s /q C:\$Recycle.bin " again shut down the computer for the night .
I booted up the computer this morning and the computer ran fine with no errors . I shut down and restarted several times and it's error free .
What do you think went wrong? If the problem return , how best to fix? Is it safe to delete the $Recycle.bin folder and let windows rebuild it ? I read that this is an alternate method but not sure of the correct procedure .
Thanks
