There's a nice tip on this page on how to do it with a mapped network drive linked to one of your "My Documents" sub-folders. Worth a try.
Here's how:
- Map a network drive to the network share you want to use. Make sure that
the drive is re-connected on logon. If
you don't know how to do this, search
Google.
- Browse to C:\users\.
- Right-click on one of the folders in this location (I chose saved games)
and click properties.
- Select the Location tab.
- Click Move, browse to to root of the drive you mapped in step 1, and
click Select Folder.
- Click Ok and click yes in the dialogue box that appears.
- Repeat these same steps for all users on the computer.
You can now verify that the network
drive is protected by the recycle bin
by right-clicking on the recycle bin
and clicking properties. The network
drive should be listed in the Recycle
Bin Locations column.
Some warnings:
1. This only protects files accessed through the mapped network drive, and
not by UNC paths. So for example, if
you mapped \server\share to z:, and
delete something off the z drive, it
will go to the recycle bin. However,
if you browse to \server\share and
delete a file, it will be deleted
directly.
- I don't know what will happen if your network drive is not available,
so beware. This may not work well with
laptops.
- What ever files that were supposed to be stored in the folder you select
in step 3 will now be stored on your
mapped network drive by default. This
can actually be quite useful.
