Finder Empty Trash Preference
Have you been emptying your trash on your friendly Macintosh and it seem to take a friggin’ eternity to empty especially if you are deleting a lot of stuff. It took me a while to find it but I knew there was a setting somewhere for secure delete. I finally found it. It was in the Finder preferences. Click on the advanced tab and change the setting. If its checked then un-check and problem solved! The solution to this problem was so easy that I forgot about it at first, so I hope this post is helpful to those of you who are in need of this deceptively simple fix to the slow trash emptying problem.
