| 564675 | 2007-06-30 23:30:00 | I notice that the Recycle Bin Icon has gone from my desktop. I am running XP Pro. I have read other threads and suggestions on how to get it back and have tried these, without success, all excepting editing the registry files which I am not too keen on doing. Is there any other way of getting this back, or is it easier to do a reinstall or repair of the OS?:dogeye: |
