"Recycle Bin on D:\ is corrupted"

I don't know if this applies to the problem I have now, but I'll share
anyways. Yesterday I accidentally deleted the 'Documents' folder. I
restored them, and everything seemed to be working fine afterwards..

The problem: When I turn on my computer, go to my recycle bin, or
click to send something into the recycle bin, I get the following
message:

Recycle Bin on D:\ is corrupted. Do you want to empty the recycle bin
for this drive?

It doesn't matter if I click yes or no, nothing happens (that I can see
anyway..).

I read the "Recycle Bin Corrupted - Cannot Delete File or Folder"
thread, but I wasn't really sure if it applied to what's going on with
my computer? Also, the items in the bin aren't showing up at all.

Thanks in advance for any help.

before restarting
