Recycle bin

Post by gas4you »

Vista.

I've just accidentally deleted the recycle bin icon on my desktop.

Is there a quick and easy way to put it back? :help:

Start, all programs, find the bin and create an icon, then drag and drop it on the screen.

Do you have Norton installed and also, what OS do you have , XP or Vista?

Try the Fixit Button here:

or if Vista:
