Lost recycle bin (trash can) desktop ICON
Okay, I know this is not very important, but after I installed Win Vista
Ultimate and moved my desktop recycle bin (trash can) to the lower left of my screen, I noticed some time later it was GONE! Now the only way I can empty the trash is to go through Windows Explorer or click on My Computer and find the recycle bin to empty it. This is a small problem, I know. I'm very happy just to have Windows Vista working well, and I've recently learned I must turn User Account Control (UAC) OFF in order to get my color settings to be saved. I'm learning something new every day!

Right click Desktop - Personalize and in the upper left of the UI there will be a link to desktop icons.

See the other post for how to restore it, it's easy to fix. -- Rock [MVP - User/Shell]
