Windows 7: Rename the recycle bin in dialogues?

quietus · 12 Sep 2009

does anyone know how i can not only rename the recycle bin, but change every reference to it in dialogues to a different name?

Thats a really good question

Maybe it can be done with a reg hack

Right clicking on the Recycle Bin on the desktop and renaming it should also change the name of it in all window titles as well.

I think he means that when you delete a file, is still says recycle bin, instead of the custom name

Mine is called S*** bin, but it still shows up like this when i delete a file:

Nope. Not a reg hack. Not alone anyway. The string needs to be replaced in the DLLs. I think ResourceHacker is what you need. I have no idea what all of the files are that will need to modded.

Ah, I was afraid of that. I would lean towards what Anthony posted as well, but I do not know what files it would be for either.
