Trash It!

Trash It! is a little application force-empties your Trash. It also supports Drag and Drop. Especially useful if you have files or folders in the Trash with permissions set incorrectly, locked Trash items, want to delete a stuck item, or trash items from other partitions. If you drop files or folders onto the Trash It! icon, it will delete them. If you double-click on it, it will clean out your Trash can. This is the software Apple Tech recommends when all else fails (according to users)!

Trash It! should be used when:

1. You can't get rid of trash items manually.
2. You can't move items to the trash.
3. You have a large number of items to delete (e.g., previous system folders).
4. You’re ready to pull your hair out because nothing seems to be working! :)

Please note: Older versions of Trash It! are available here. There is a hardware bug with 10.6 running on certain Macs that causes Trash It! to unexpectedly quit on launch. Please use v5.x if you experience this problem.

Note: Now requires OS X 10.7 or later

• Sierra (10.12) compatibility.
• Other bug fixes.
