have you ever Deleted the Recycle Bin in vista

dustin_ds3000 · 02-28-2008, 07:23 PM

here is a quick way of fixing it

1) Right click the Vista Desktop
2) Click on Personalize
3) Select: 'Change desktop icons'
4) At the Desktop Icon Settings, place a tick next to: 'Recycle Bin'
5) Click ok
6) Close Personalize

Here is an ideal solution for when you have an incompetent user, who keep on deleting their Recycle Bin

1) Launch regedit

2) In Regedit, navigate to the following key:
HKCR\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

3) To create a new registry Key called 'Shell', click on the Edit Menu, New, select: Key and name it 'Shell'. You should now have:
HKCR\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\Shell

3) Under Shell create a new (Sub) Key called 'Delete'. Click on the Edit Menu, New, select: Key. You should now have:
HKCR\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\Shell\Delete

4) Edit the 'Default' REG_SZ, as this is just a string value for display you could set to anything you like, for example 'YourName's Indestructible Bin'

or if this doesnt work, u can make a folder delete it then search for it and the folder its in is the recycle bin

LOL, nice guide, but it makes you wonder why you even CAN delete Recycle Bin in the first place. In XP you couldn't... Or maybe that was ME.

Stuart · 02-29-2008, 06:57 AM

hah, nice guide. I havent done it (yet)

dustin_ds3000 · 02-29-2008, 07:05 AM

yeah i deleted the recycle the first time i used vista so i knew it could be a problem for most users

got zune? · 02-29-2008, 10:39 AM

Yup, I deleted mine but I did it on purpose, I wanted a clean desktop

IE3I STEVO · 03-03-2008, 03:45 PM

scared the **** out of me the first time i did it, i ended up looking for it for like an hour, why do they make it deleteable, vista can be pretty gay sometimes

it's deleteable in XP too, I guess that makes it gay just the same.

-Cracks up- Ok, wow, I actually never thought of deleting the Recycle Bin...might do it one day and go to my dad "Uhm dad, your with Microsoft, how do I get my Recycle Bin back?" and see if he can do it. Wow, haha.
