Hi Sarah
I either didn't understand the tutorial or it is not answering my question.
I have tried to show the problem in a graphic. See Attached JPEG
Thanks

Since installing a new server (Linux based) an annoying "#recycle" folder has appeared at the top of every list of folders in windows explorer.
Our I.T. support told us that it was a necessary function of Windows 10 but it also appears on P.C.'s running Windows 7.
I want to know how to Hide, Remove or Rename this folder so it does not appear at top of explorer window of every shared drive.
Also is this a function of running a Linux based network server as we didnt have it when our previous I.T support supplier installed a Windows based server?
Any help would be appreciated.
