Hi all.

I just deleted a file then right clicked on my recycle bin to empty it, but I must have somehow deleted it! because the recycle bin icon has dissapeared from my desktop!

God knows how this happened, but any idea's how to get it back :confused:

Seems to be a werid bug some people get now and again

Right click on desktop, Personalize, Change Desktop Icons (seen in the tasks panel) and tick Recycle Bin.

u can remove the recycle bin icon by clicking delete on it.. its just a shortcut..

Deleted the Recycle Bin myself a few times, until I got used to the extra "Delete" function on the right click.

OK, it's fixed now. Thanks for the help.
