TITLE   :Recycle Bin May Open Slowly If Security Is Set on Logical Disks
PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT
PROD/VER:winnt:4.0
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:kbWinNT400PreSP7Fix

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0 
 - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

On a Windows NT-based computer with at least two disk volumes, opening Recycle
Bin may take several seconds if access to one or more of the disk volumes has
been locked using a third-party service.

CAUSE
=====

When Recycle Bin is opened, it attempts to open the current user's Recycler
folder on each available volume. A problem with the Windows NT shell causes it
to pause and retry the open operation several times if access to the volumes is
denied. This can lead to a delay of several seconds.
