When you delete a file in Windows '95

It's actually just moved to the Recycle Bin. It will stay on your hard drive until you empty the Recycle Bin or it becomes full. You can change the amount of hard drive space used by the Recycle bin if you wish to free up some space. Right click the Recycle Bin icon and select Properties. Change the settings to ones which more suit you. When deleting a file, you can bypass the Recycle Bin by holding the shift key as you delete it. The file will then be truly deleted.
