You say it didn't bring it back, but what are you seeing after you
click on "Change desktop icons"? Is the box next to "Recycle Bin"
checked?

I think it was a mistake for Microsoft to put a "Delete" option on the
menu when you right-click the Recycle Bin. Its just too easy to hit
"Delete" there instead of "Empty Recycle Bin" It wasn't like that on
XP.
