Empty trash without confirming?

[ero87]

Hey friends,

Is there a way to disable the "Are you sure?" warning when emptying the trash? Thanks 🙂

Of course there is!

Finder -> Preferences -> Advanced

Then unclick the box that says "Show warning before emptying trash"

Or hold down the alt key while clicking the menu item...

Thanks! And while we're on that screen, what does "Zoom using Trackpad" mean?

I just cmd-shift-delete on the desktop and trash goes poof.

I'm guessing that with a Multi-Touch trackpad you can zoom in on the screen. This can also be done by holding ctrl and scrolling with your fingers upwards...Interesting

I can't confirm or deny this, but that is what it sounds like to me

That works even without the new Multi Touch trackpads. They just have to support dual finger recognition / scrolling. Press ctrl, and then do some two finger scrolling action...

Yeah but why it doesn't show up in mine?

Actually, I just noticed that it doesn't show up in my Finder's preferences as well. It works, though... 😕

Sorry this is a late post, but the zooom with trackpad bit lets you resize the folders by pinching - like the icon size slider in the bottom left when you search for something.
