In Windows 7, by default, the Recycle Bin does not display the total size of all the items in it directly like it did in Windows XP. However, there are a couple of ways to check the total size of items in the Recycle Bin in Windows 7: 1. Check Individual File Sizes: - You can view the size of each file individually by right-clicking on the Recycle Bin icon on your desktop and selecting "Open." Then you can sort the files by size to get an estimate of the total size. 2. Command Prompt: - You can use the Command Prompt to get the total size of items in the Recycle Bin. Here's how: 1. Press Windows Key + R to open the Run dialog. 2. Type cmd and press Enter to open the Command Prompt. 3. In the Command Prompt window, type the following command:

 du /s %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer

- This command will display the total size of the Recycle Bin items. If you prefer to have the total size displayed directly in the Recycle Bin interface, you might need to use third-party tools or software that offer this functionality as a Windows 7 system setting does not provide this feature natively like in Windows XP.
