How To: Permanently bypass the recycle bin when deleting files 
Modified By TotalComputerGeek  on 3/22/2008 11:31:09 PM)

If you would like to permanently delete any file without having to remove it from the recycle bin also, this simple registy tweak sets your Windows XP installation to ignore the recycling bin completely. Note that this means any files you delete will be permanently lost (though still accessible to data recovery software).

Open REGEDIT [or use regrun]

Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer

Create a DWORD value with the following specs:

Value name: NukeOnDelete

Value: 1

If you wish to revert to using the recycle bin, simply enter 0 as the new value.
