Hi guys
I have just moved a load of files from drive G to H and reformatted drive G using windows from the properties screen, afterwards i went back into drive G and found a folder called RECYCLER,
So what is this folder doing on my drive after formatting it?
should i re-format drive G again with pq magic? or will it magically appear on another drive or
is it a gen program or not? spybot or ad-aware dont pick anything up nor does spy sweeper or nortons
should i just leave this folder as it is?
or do i have a problem guys?

It has to do with the recycle bin.

Differences Between the Recycle Bin and the Recycler Folder

No nothing to worry about. Windows manages them, but it is good to run CCleaner daily to speed the process along.
