Hi,

I've to implement a function that delete a file and put it in the recycle
bin.

I've used SHGetSpecialFolder function to retrieve the path of recycle bin
folder and move the file in it, but it is ever an empty string.

//---------------------------------------------------------------
    char path[MAX_PATH+1];

     try
    {
            if (SHGetSpecialFolderPath(Handle, path, CSIDL_BITBUCKET, 0))
                //code to copy file to recycle bin path
     } catch (...) {//error message}
//---------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks

Mario Sernicola
