When trying to login to my computer it comes up with a box saying ‘the recycle bin on c:\ is corrupted. Do you want to empty the recycle bin for this drive’ I cannot click yes or no, it just takes me back to the login page. I have turned it on and off multiple times, I cannot access anything. How do I fix this problem?

Thank you for responding. I can’t get to my desktop, I’m stuck on the page where you would put your pin in to then go to your profile when you first turn the laptop on.
