    Friend says, I cant delete a picture without it duplicating itself. I've got a mess.

    When deleting pictures to the recycle bin, they are duplicating and going back into "my pictures" :confused:

    Hmm - that's neat - never heard of that before :D

    Try - on a temporary basis :

    Right click on Recycle Bin > Properties and check 'Do not remove files to the Recycle Bin'.

    Does this happen only with image files?

    I had that problem. I found that when I held down the Ctrl button then used arrow key for multiple pictures it would do that. Single pictures NO. Then for multiple pictures I tried holding down Shift key & using arrow key & it worked right.;)
