How can I (if I can) add a network drive to my Recycle Bin List?

What I need to do is add a network drive to my Recycle Bin list of drives.
The reason is that when I delete files from the network drive I cannot
retrieve them (as they don't go to my computer's Recycle Bin and they don't
stay on the server). When I open the Recycle Bin Properties, it only lists my
local and connected external drives (USB), it does not list my network
drives. Is it possible to modify this list to add my network drives?? Thx.

You can't do it, restore the deleted files from your back up or use a
third party solution for a network Recycle Bin.

The Windows recycle bin doesn't work on network drives....you can't change
that. Perhaps some third party software would do it for you (I don't know of
any offhand, but google for it).
