To prevent deletion of the Recycle Bin in the future, do this..
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
4. 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
5. 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'.
