Recycle Bin GPO settings not working/implemented in Windows Server 2022.

Silver Contributor

Hi, folks.

 

I leverage the following three settings under User/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/File Explorer to effectively disable the Recycle Bin and force prompting for deletions on all Windows Server hosts, yet on Windows Server 2022, they are having no effect.

The description for each setting contains no hints as to whether they've been deliberately omitted from Windows Server 2022 (most likely) or this is just some kind of bug/accidental omission.

 

I ran a cross-check using the local group policy editor on a Server 2022 host as I haven't specifically updated the domain templates to Server 2022, but it's the same outcome.

 

Does anyone have any insight as to whether these settings have been dropped as of Server 2022/Windows 11?

 

Cheers,

Lain
