Recycle Bin

[Mike Baur]

Is there any way to remove your Recycle Bin from your desktop? I like to
keep my desktop clear of any icons or shortcuts and the only one i can't
seem to get rid of is the recycle bin.

Thanks
M.B.

right click the desktop and select arrange icons by and
then select the show desktop icons option - this will get
rid of all desktop items , obviously this will not delete
the icons but you wont be able to see them

Click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT Go to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\NonEnum

Right click in the right pane and select New, DWord value. Name this new
value

{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

Then double click the value you just created and set its value to 1. Log
off/log on and the Recycle Bin will be gone.
