Hello,
I would like to access the recycle bin on windows xp and eventually empty its
content.
Googling around this led me to try the following (to empty the bin):
from win32com.shell import shell
shell.SHEmptyRecycleBin()
Unfortunately, this doesn't work.
The traceback gives me :
TypeError: SHEmptyRecycleBin() takes exactly 3 arguments (0 given)
So, I tried something I found somewhere:
from win32com.shell import shell
shell.SHEmptyRecycleBin(
#No confirmation dialog when emptying the recycle bin
SHERB_NOCONFIRMATION = 0x00000001,
#No progress tracking window during the emptying of the recycle bin
SHERB_NOPROGRESSUI = 0x00000001),
#No sound whent the emptying of the recycle bin is complete
SHERB_NOSOUND = 0x00000004
)
This doesn't work either, giving me the following traceback:
TypeError: SHEmptyRecycleBin() takes no keyword arguments
Ooops! The 2 tracebacks are contradictory.
Can anybody help me on this, please.
read and empty the bin and possibly send a file to it.
Thanks in advance
Dominique
