Does windows7 log the files I've recycled?
Over the past week or so I've recycled and then deleted a lot of photos. I realize now that I would like to know the number of photos I've deleted. Is there any way to do this? Is there a log file showing a list of the files sent to the recycling bin? I am running windows 7.
Thank you.

I don't think there is straight forward way to do this. But if you haven't been messing too much with you hard drive, there's a good chance you can use a data recovery tool(eg. recuva) to achieve this.

Thanks, I did consider that but since I am just curious about the number I've deleted and I don't actually need to keep the files I am not sure it would be worth using recovery software. I was hoping Windows somehow tracked it. Thank you.

No, there is no such log file.
You could take a look at what is in the recycle bin right now and count the photos. There is a script on StackOverflow: Listing files in recycle bin that you could use for that.

I've been emptying the recycle bin and permanently deleting the files so there is currently nothing in the bin to count. Thank you.
