Hi BrianL,
Unable to follow your thread. Will not accept my login.
Nor will it send me a password update.

Must be a cut-and-paste error on Brian's part.
You could look here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/Can-Recycle-Bin-be-enabled-for-CIFS-and-OS-6-1-2-on-a-314/m-p/856712/highlight/true#M26776
and perhaps read through the posts after the highlighted thread as well. The process will require some knowledge of linux.
Though I find Snapshots to be a good alternative. With snapshots enabled, you can roll-back to older versions of the share, and if you right-click from windows on a file you can see/access previous versions. If you right-click on the folder and access previous versions, you can select deleted files and restore them. It's not exactly the same as the recycle bin, but it is similar.
Hi neonshades,
Sorry, I made a mistake with the link I used in my previous post (I already updated it). Anyway, StephenB already gave an introduction on how Snapshots work on the new OS 6 systems. Just let us know if you have further questions.

Hi BrianL,
Thanks for the help but snapshot is not what I needed. Guess the simple answer is no, the recycle bin tick box has been removed from the RN104 operating system.
Shame really.
