Recycle Bin

Okay,

I just had a brain fart and can't remember where to go to display the
recycle bin on the desk top. I deleted the icon from the desk top by
accident..

  1. Right-click a part of the desktop that does not contain an icon, select "Personalize"
  2. In "Tasks" to the left, click "Change Desktop Icons"
  3. Re-Check "Recycle Bin"
  4. Click "OK"
Did that restore your Recycle Bin to the desktop?
