How To Hide Recycle Bin

Did you bored with windows XP's …………………recycle bin?

And wanna change a look. If you like to do so this article may help you. So what about hiding recycle bin or rename recycle bin.


How to Hide Recycle Bin icon from desktop

well Hiding recycle bin slightly different from above one. To do this we going to edit registry using SCRIPTS. There are two ways to edit registry (as I think).

1) we can edit registry manually with "Regedit.exe"

2) or we can use scripts.

Second method is faster than first one.

Okay here we go

Open note pad and COPY bellow text (very carefully and all the text)


REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\ClassicStartMenu]

"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]

"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001



Save it as "hiderecycle.reg".

Find it and just double click on it .then windows will ask you something like this

"are you sure you want………………………………….blah "

Click yes and windows give another message telling that you r windows registry successfully…………………………."

Just refresh

WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(why don't you show you r skills to friends.)


If you feel lonely without recycle bin icon on desktop. Do followings to make it visible.

Copy and paste follow script on a note pad and save it as "Showrecycle.reg"


REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\ClassicStartMenu]

"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]

"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000000
