DESCRIPTION

With its auto-empty and data retain options, TrashMagic makes your Trash a Smart Trash.
  • Protection engine running in background.
  • Automatically backup the Trash contents.
  • TrashMagic menu to activate/deactivate the protection at any time.
  • Keep the data in the cache during a programmed time.
  • Drag-and-drop recovery.

AKROBAT  This is a useful app. Unfortunately for this developer the new Mac OSX - Leopard has this functionality built in amongst a whole host of other wonderful stuff...and the OS costs $129 while this app alone costs $49.

However that said I've been using it now for a few weekss and am quite happy with it. One problem I've come across: I've put TrashMagic in my startup items. I've a MacBook that logs out automatically after an hour of inactivity. When I log back in I always get an error message from TrashMagic telling me it couldn't start. A bit annoying really.

MACUPDATE-USER  It is said that Leopard has most of these features as TrashMagic. What features are these, and how do I access them in Leopard?

JOHN SAWYER CJS  As far as I've seen, Leopard has no undo for emptying the trash.

PXL  ... and for $49... you would atleast invest in some better icons for this app.

There absolutely ugly and I don't want my Mac looking downgraded.

SANJINKO  This application could be useful to those who use plain "Empty Trash" command. In such a case I could justify $49 price tag. On the other hand, if you use "Secure Empty Trash" or delete the contents of the Trash via Terminal, the data being previously trashed is gone forever.
