I can't empty anymore my onedrive recycle bin at once, when i select all the files in the onedrive recycle bin the option "delete" is no more presented, only the option "restore" is.
If I empty it thru the "manage storage" page and the "empty recycle bin" hyperlink, files are still there even hours later.
The only option is select a single file at a time and use the 3 dots menu where the option "delete" is presented. But as this is file by file, this is of course completely unefficient and therefor unacceptable.
I just find out that i can select maximum 50 files to delete them all at once. Starting from 51, the option disappears... Unbelievable?!

I have no "empty recycle bin" option there or anywhere else, do you know if they decidced to get rid of that option since you commented this? Im considering deleting everything related to microsoft at this point if I can because im so frustrated with them.
There is no option at the top to empty the recycle bin. Maybe you should check out your own website before giving useless advise.
I also noticed this change, where you can only select up to and delete a maximum of 50 files at once. ALSO, image previews/thumbnails no longer display in the OneDrive recycle bin as well. Both of these unfortunate changes occurred simultaneously sometime earlier this year.
I can only do 30, but I have to click all 30files one by one. So annoying
