recycle bin

I'm running Windows 7. When I go into BleachBit and check the System/Recycle Bin, then press clean, it does nothing. Am I missing something?

BleachBit version: 
2.2
Your operating system: 
Windows 7

So you mean after cleaning, the Recycle Bin is still full? Is it the Recyle Bin for the C: drive? Are the files owned by the same user account?

As I said in my post, I open bleachbit, check the system/Recycle Bin box. Then press clean. I get Disk space recovered: 0, files detected: 0. The recycle bin icon is on my desktop, but I have no idea where Win 7 keeps it. I assumed BleachBit did if it offers that option. Probably in a hidden directory somewhere since searching the hard drives doesn't show the location of any of the files in it.
