Default Clean up my mess when I lave

Hi

I have made Task Schedule to maintain my computer.
But I would like to Task Schedule to be activated automatically just
before Windows closes down.

Can it be done, and if yes: how?

And by the way: can my 'Recycled Bin' (not sure about the name in
English) be automatically emptied at the same time?

Tasks must be Scheduled by time (to the minute).
They cannot be Scheduled for execution whenever
you feel ready to Shut Down. (But you could then
run a BATch file of file instructions.)

English) be automatically emptied at the same time?


Not under Windows. You can issue DOS commands to
DELTREE C:/RECYC*.*
DELTREE D:/RECYC*.*
and so on for every logical drive
(with a parameter /Y so as not to require keyboard OK ??)
The Recycled Bin will then be created afresh (and empty)
next time you boot Windows.
