how to get your recycle bin back on your desktop after you have deleted it in windows vista

how to get your recycle bin back on your desktop in windows vista

It seems pretty stupid, but I recycle my recycle bin right off my desktop at least once every two months, and I always forget how to bring it back. So I go on a Google search and waste at least three precious minutes of my valuable time figuring out how to get it back. That time wasting ends today.

Here's how you get your recycle bin back after you've deleted it:
  1. Right-click on your desktop and select personalize from the menu.
  2. Click the change desktop icons menu option in the upper-left corner.
  3. Check the recycle bin box.
  4. Done.

And now with pictures:

1. Right-click on your desktop and select personalize from the menu.
