Okay so I have been using my PC for a few months now with a magically disappeared recycle bin.I delete a folder today and it says "do you want to delete to recylce bin?".
I'm like "WUT?" seeing there is no visible recycle bin on my desktop.So I go to folder settings in the control panel and allow hidden files to be seen so it still isn't there.
I search in google how to fix this issue and come up with this handy tutorial:

How to Find a Lost, or Deleted Recycle Bin. Vista Resize Desktop Icons

It worked.. and I restored the bin.. It had a few files from AGES ago in it undeleted and I disposed of them.

This is where the problem kicks in.
The folder I just deleted wasn't among those files.And there was another recycle bin (full) icon in desktop settings.

Can someone tell me how to delete one recycle bin and use the full one or something?Heres an image of my issue:
