I clicked on the 'Empty the Recycle Bin' icon and it queried "Delete all 33
items?"

Windows might be set to hide system files. That's its default.
In that case, if there are system files in the recycle bin, you wouldn't see
them.
If you want to check this, you can change your folder options to get Windows
to show you system files then have another look at the bin.
