How To Schedule The Recycle Bin To Automatically Empty Its Contents

by


Very few people know that deleting the files from the computer will not save the disk space as they will be sent to the Recycle bin. Emptying the items from the bin will add back the preoccupied space on your PC. Deleting the files directly without making them go into the trash bin is actually another way to skip the process of emptying the bin. But doing that is not advised sometimes as we may need that file and we may change our mind to get it back. And if you are also one among the many people who use recycle bin a lot and forget to empty it at times resulting in a filled disk space, then you should need to schedule to automatically delete the contents of your bin.

Empty the Recycle Bin Using Schedule

  • First of all, you need to open the Task Scheduler. You can do this by pressing Windows + X key, select the Control Panel from the pop-up menu, now go to System and Security, and then to Administrative Tools, finally click Task Scheduler to open the window
  • Now right click on the Task Scheduler Library on the left side pane of the window and click on the New Folder option from the drop-down menu
  • Name the folder as My Tasks
  • Now right click the newly created folder and just select the Create Task option
  • A window will be opened now, go to General Tab and now name this task, in our case, it is Auto-Empty Recycle bin. 
  • Then go to the Triggers tab, click on the New option to create an action
  • Here in the window, you can set the schedule as you like, you set the task to trigger weekly, monthly or on a particular date and time
  • Now go to Actions tab and click on New
  • Under the Programs/script box enter cmd.exe and click on Ok

That is it, you are all done with setting up.

Instagram, the major photo sharing giant with about 500 million monthly active users is a very popular application among the internet users. Instagram’s android or ios application as of now doesn’t have any features of scheduling the posts for a particular time. But with the use of the amazing application named buffer, you can be able to do that scheduling for your Instagram posts.

Buffer is a platform which allows you to sharing posts of text, audio, video or any links right from one place to many of your social networking platforms and you can even schedule those posts for a later time.

When you log into your buffer dashboard, you have to connect your various social networking accounts in order to share any post into that account. And recently it added sharing posts to your Instagram account as well. After you connect your Instagram account, you will have to give access to your account to buffer. To do that, you just have to click on Authorize.

After that you will have to open the buffer application in your android or ios device, as it can only be done from the mobile application. Open your buffer application and login with your details to see all your connected social networking accounts.

Now the one thing that you should remember here is that buffer cannot actually post on your behalf, instead it just reminds of the scheduled post at the time that you have set it remind and will allow you post you then. You do this either from the mobile app or the buffer in the desktop browser.

So it may not actually give you the benefit of posting the photo directly to your account, but you can actually stop worrying about the post that has to be done at time as it will remind you in time. And it allows you compose Instagram posts from your desktop browser as well. So, here comes the advantage that we can actually post now from the desktop.

So enjoy posting in Instagram by scheduling your posts with buffer.
