    Hi there,

    for any reason the recycle bin integration does not work.
    When I drag a file out of windows in the coherence mode towards mac os trash bin, the dock remains silent.
    Shared folders is activated; copying files between windows and mac works fine.
    Any idea?

    best regards.

    Delete folder C:\.Trash in Virtual Machine.
    If you cannot see this folder please follow steps bellow
    Open My Computer-Tools -Folder Options-View tab

    Select - Show hidden files and folders
    Clear - Hide protecting operating system files(Recommended)
    Click OK twice
    for now you should see that folders on C:

    NOTE
    If you still cannot see it, please check that you can see boot.ini file
    and pagefile.sys, if you cannot see them also, it means that VM is
    infected, most probably this is amvo virus or variants

    I have still the same behaviour after removing C:\.Trashes.
    When I restart windows parallels C:\.Trashes gets created again.
    The files
    C:\boot.ini
    C:\pagefile.sys
    exist though.

    I am sure that windows is NOT infected...

    I removed parallels tools by windows software manager and did a fresh parallels tools installation and still the recycle bin integration does not work. Once I told you also that the buttons for parallels tools and parallels compressor in the action menu are silent, though I dont know if it has something to do with the recycle bin integration issue, which bothers me more!

    I did check it and I am sure that I have downloaded macfuse 1.7 from the website you also mentioned.
    By that time I needed the installation for formating my external hard drive with NTFS-3G for Mac OS X.
    What do you mean by "separately"?

    NTFS-3g - that it is - it can affect our driver behavior
