Corrupt Recycle Bin

I have a new 3 TB external My Book on Windows 7 64-bit Ultra.  Whenever I attempt to delete a file on My Book the recycle bin gets corrupt.  Is there any solution to this problem?  Otherwise My Book works great :heart:

Did you verify if the problem happens on any PC? If it doesn’t happen, then the problem is on the windows side, check if the link below helps.
