Delete Old Items From Recycle Bin Using BinManager Context Menu
Posted December 21, 2009 – 10:15 am in: Freeware, Windows 7 TweaksRecycle Bin is one of the most ignored parts of Windows. Often we delete items from one or more folders to the Recycle Bin. Although we can use Shift + Delete keys to completely remove items (bypassing Recycle Bin) it’s always safe to delete items to the Recycle Bin.
One of the missing features of Windows Recycle Bin is that the user can’t delete items on the basis of time period. That is, you can’t easily delete items older than a week or a month from Recycle Bin.
BinManager is a brilliant shell context menu that allows you delete all but the most recent items from your recycle bin. Once you download and install it, an entry will be added to Recycle Bin context menu.
Right-click on the Recycle Bin icon to see Delete items olden than Today, Yesterday, 2 days, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days option. You can select the appropriate option to empty your recycle bin.

Nice ductility, but you failed to mention it hasn’t been updated since 2003. It crashed Explorer while working on doing it’s job. I’m running Windows 7 32-bit.

Thanks for the heads up. Btw, I am running BinManager without any problems on Windows 7 Ultimate x32.
Pretty good! I just wish it would do this automatically. That would be awesome.
