Is there a way to recover the recycle bin? I right clicked intending to
empty it and hit delete instead? Help!

Re: Recycle Bin

Yes. Go to Control panel> Appearance and Personalization> Change Desktop Icon Settings (which is on the left margin). In that window, check the box for Recycle Bin, and you should be back in business.

Re: Recycle Bin

You can right click your desktop, click Personalization, then on the left
pane click "Change desktop icons". Check "Recycle Bin" and click ok. That
will restore your bin.

Hi JB Brewski,

This will show you how.

Desktop Icons


If you have problems with it refreshing afterwards, then see:
