Unable to Type in Address Bar in Recycle Bin (300923)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
  • Microsoft Windows XP Professional
This article was previously published under Q300923

SYMPTOMS

If you open the Recycle Bin and try to type in the Address bar, the address reverts back to Recycle Bin, and this prevents you from opening or viewing other folders from the Recycle Bin. For example, whatever you type in the Address bar is rapidly and automatically changed to "recycle bin."

RESOLUTION

To view or open folders, use Microsoft Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer instead of the Recycle Bin.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
