This problem is so miniscule it's almost funny, although it is still a bit bothersome. Suddenly my Trash always displays the 'full' icon, and when I hover on it the pop-up says "1 item in trash". It doesn't matter if there is 0 or 20 items, and when it is actually empty, the "Empty Trash" button is disabled in the window, but not in the right-click menu.

FWIW- There hasn't been any updates, nor have I changed any system settings since it last worked properly, which was only yesterday.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Probably just glitched on start-up yesterday. Today it's back to normal.
