Good Morning Ronni, Thank you, I was getting annoyed because I knew there was a solution from past members having similar problems. I have followed your instructions by using the 2nd suggestion in holding the Shift / Option keys Whilst clicking empty trash. All working fine, thank you Ronni, peace at last.
