Hello,
When using the recycle bin and the option "move to system recycle bin" is set to NO, is there anyway to recover the files in it?
Thanks

No there isn't.
But you can set it to keep files in it for a while. Check the properties.

if you can't recover, then why keep them for any period?

Well they are there for the time you set them to stay there.
It doesn't work for you now but in the future they will be there if you need them again

First of all, one of the three "Keep" properties will have to be set to something that is not 0. Then, when there are jobs in the Recycle bin and you shift-right-click on the bin icon, or on the name of the recycle bin folder in the Jobs pane, there is an option "Open in Finder/Explorer".
