    Hey folks would really appreciate your help.

    The Recycle Bin is gone from the Desktop probably by one of the kids. How can I get a shortcut back onto the Desktop?

    Thanks in advance

    On Vista: Right click on desktop - Personalize. On the left click Change Desktop Icons then click on the recycle bin check box.

    On XP: I don't think it's possible to remove the recycle bin without using a special tool like tweakui or something, so if you are on XP, are all your icons displayed? Nothing is hidden off screen?

    with XP, you can enable/disable the default desktop items by;

    Right-click on the desktop > properties > Desktop tab > Customise Desktop, and check/uncheck the Recycle Bin option!

    If it's not there, in the same window, click the Recycle Bin icon (full & empty) and hit restore default. If that doesn't work for you, you can always recreate a shortcut. Hit Win+E on the keyboard (or just go into Windows Explorer), Right-click & Hold on the recycle bin, drag to the desktop and release to Create Shortcut!
