    Run command for recycle bin

    This is required for people who do not have access directly to the recycle bin as the admin of a collage or organization can block the access to a recycle bin so, this run command helps to have access to the recycle bin.
    Hope that is a sufficient enough answer

    There's also:

    cd c:\recycler

    then

    dir /a

    which gives the directory names (are they the SIDs?) for the users so it's possible to navigate into those folders (with appropriate permissions).

    However, the file names aren't normal. There's a forensic tool (Rifiuti - Foundstone Free Tools) which can be used to interrogate the filenames.
