RE: Desktop Recycle Bin

Hi gbalonek,

You will just need to right click on the desktop and click Personalize, then click Change desktop icons.

Right-click on the Desktop, click Personalize, and in the left pane, click Change desktop icons. In the Desktop Icon Settings dialog, enable the Recycle Bin checkbox. Click OK.
