I am on verisiontracker quite a bit. I am running 10.4.11 on a MacBook Pro Intel Core Duo.
I went to the apple store and they could not help me empty the trash. I had AppleWorks 6 and did everything I could, such as change the permissions and unlock the file in the trash. The Apple guy was clueless as probably Apple was. I asked two guys "geniuses" and soon learned that for their own App on their own machine for the clippings points and other extraneous utilities that were associated with Appleworks 6 including the App itself would not empty of the trash and every time I would trash I had to keep clicking the continue button about fifteen times to trash. Sound familiar? Most of these were Apple related. Then I downloaded this program and went under the Batchmod menu selection and selected Force Empty Trash. It did it without a hitch. What is with Apple? I did nothing other than install the AppleWorks 6 more than two years ago and have struggled ever since until Batchmod. By the way people, tell us what your system. It makes it easier for the rest of us. This is absolutely a 5 Star if there every was one and the time it will save me from having to continually pressing the return key I am so thankful to Batchmod. It almost seems I a writing so much that I am with the company. I assure I am not. I am grateful to VersionTracker that I could enter the search term "trash" and find this great program. The struggle for two years is over!!!!!!!!!
