No "Empty Recylce Bin"

When I open the recyle bin it shows files that I have deleted, but when I close the window and go to "Empty Recycle Bin" it is greyed out and will not let me do it.  How do I fix this?

Along the top (Menu) bar there is Home, Share, View, and Manage. Click on Manage.

Empty Recycle Bin is in the Manage tab.

That should work for you.

Note:  Also I should have noted, that it Empty is Greyed out here (it is for me right now) then the Recycle Bin is Empty.

Is there a way to turn the right click option back on so that I don't have to take 3 steps to empty it?

I restarted the computer and it works fine now.

Yes, I have seen this before (and on my own computers).  Thanks for the update
