This one's unusual. I've had the sharing option for as long as i can remember, and somewhere along the way I dragged a windows file to the Mac recycle bin (as a test more than anything else) - i can no longer delete it out when I Mac empty the trash, the Windows Recycle Bin is empty, and even if i drag the file to the Windows side and try trash it there, it still leaves it behind in the Mac. This disappears the minute I close down Parallels (v.5540, works fine !) - and wondering what will fix it ? Reinstalling Tools ? Would love help !
Scrub that - I've now fixed it - had to go back to a previous Snapshot and redo windows - a virus program wasn't working and i think it held it back.
