    Cannot restore recycle bin to desktop.


    Greetings every1.


    I was browsing around and found a tutorial to add a fully functional recycle bin to the taskbar. I got it to work perfectly so i deleted the one off my desktop. A few days ago i accidentally deleted it from the taskbar and got stuck. I figured i would just restore it to the desktop again. The problem started there for i could not figure out how to restore it. I did some googling and tried to restore it from the desktop icons setings window, however the recycle bin icon was unclickable. Is there any other way for me to restore my recycle bin to the desktop?

I'm sure this has been answered before somewhere but I just don't know where it would be. I have successfully made a copy of the recycle bin and pinned it to the task bar. Yeah. Now; how do I remove the original recycle bin from the desktop. I've done some goggling and I'm unable to find some...
I searched but didn't see anyone else asking this question, so here I go. I like a clean desktop, but like being able to drag and drop desktop files in the trash when I'm done with them. In Vista I made my Recycle Bin icon invisible by using a shortcut to the Recycle Bin and then using a...
