Trash can showing full with nothing in it.
For some reason my desktop trash can shows that it has files in it but when you open it there are no files to empty.
If you try to empty it the trash can still shows files in it.
Is there some way to reset this?
RE: Trash can showing full with nothing in it.
Try creating a file, dragging it to the trash, then emptying. I think that's worked for me in the past.
RE: Trash can showing full with nothing in it.
Well now I can not even drag a file to it! I try to put something in to it but the mouse goes to a cross sign that says I can not put anything in it!
RE: Trash can showing full with nothing in it.
Does the "Move to Trash" option on the right click menu still work?

You might try this:
First, open the trash can to ensure that there is nothing in it.
Then, insert the following code into a console:
echo "EmptyIcon=trashcan_empty" >> ~/Desktop/trash.desktop
That should set the trash can icon to the empty state when the trash can is,
indeed empty.
Hope this helps.
