Thank you a lot tekkbebe, problem was in reboot, after rebooted server machine tested it again and files started to show up in /sharedfoldername/.recycle/username/files as you said. OMV web GUI only asked to press apply after changed setting not to restart so that is why i didn't do it at first time.

I left 0 values because i wanted to manually delete files and to have unrestricted file sizes.

Also i noticed on some of my clients pc folder .recycle appear as hidden so i needed to set in folder options to see hidden files.

Thanks again on quick response.

Hello everyone,

I am new to OMV and linux at all, but after suggestion from friends I installed OMV as my SOHO file server with 7 clients running windows 8.1 and now i am happy that i did it since i have over 30 days up time without any problems. With help of this forum and pages about OMV managed to get everything running (mirror raid, shares, file system) without any problems but now i have question about recycle bin for SMB/CIFS share.

After deleting some of not important files by accident I realized that i need recycle bin for 2 shared folders and went to shared folders options and enabled box where is recycle bin and left file size and days on 0 value. Problems is now i can't see recycle bin in my shared folders, tried with deleting some test files to see if it will appear but still nothing.

So my question is how i can see recycle bin folder and what is in it? Have in mind that i am really beginner when this type of software and my guess is that i missing something really basic but can't see it and it's drives me crazy.

Running OMV 0.5.21 with usb backup and antivirus plugins.
