| | Re: Recycle Bin and stupid mistake I've seen a lot of "help, I've deleted my Recycle Bin!" type posts. I know you can import the registry file yourself from some of the links offered by people, but I have an "all in one" tweaker type of program for Vista that can make some tweaks pretty easy. you can grab the Vista version here: http://xenomorph.net/xdntweaker/ it has a button that changes the "Delete" function on the Recycle Bin to a "Search..." function.
