SHQueryRecycleBin

SHSTDAPI SHQueryRecycleBin(
    LPCTSTR pszRootPath, 
    LPSHQUERYRBINFO pSHQueryRBInfo
);		

Retrieves the size of the Recycle Bin, and number of items in it, on the specified drive.

• Returns S_OK if successful, or an OLE-defined error value otherwise.

pszRootPath

Address of a NULL-terminated string to contain the path of the root drive on which the Recycle Bin is located. This parameter can contain the address of a string formatted with the drive, folder, and subfolder names (c:\windows\system . . .). It can also contain an empty string or NULL. If this value is an empty string or NULL, information is retrieved for all Recycle Bins on all drives.

pSHQueryRBInfo

Address of a SHQUERYRBINFO structure that receives the Recycle Bin information. The cbSize member of the structure must be set to the size of the structure before calling this API.
