Help! My hard drive is full. I have 3,000 tmp files in my recycle bin, yet I can't dump it.?
I found out I have 3,000 tmp files in my recycle bin by doing a search for tmp files. When I double click on the recycle bin icon--it only shows a flashlight searching for folders/files. My drive is about to crash--what can I do to delete these tmp files? Thank you

Restart the computer, press Shift+F8 start windows in Safe-mode, then attempt to delete (right click and EMPTY ) the trash can first, or hold down SHIFT+DELETE to have items get deleted right away instead of going to the recycle bin
