| | Re: my recycle bin disappeared Right-click the Desktop, and choose Personalize. Then click on "Change desktop icons", under Tasks (on the left side of the window). Put a check next to Recycle Bin.

You probably rightclicked on the Bin and chose 'delete' instead of 'empty bin'. To get it back rightclick on your desktop -> choose 'personalize'-> in the left pane choose 'Change desktop icons'. -- Mamamegs. I reject your reality and substitute my own.

| | Re: my recycle bin disappeared In addition to the instructions from the other posters, do us all a favor and send a complaint to Microsoft. Several of us warned the Vista Team during beta testing that putting Delete on the context menu was going to lead to this kind of thing. It is the one place where "Delete" and "Empty" just sound too much alike, given what the user is wanting to do. I argued that "Hide the Recycle Bin" was a better choice. Someone at MS got hung up on "consistency" across context menus.
