Recycle bin

[Ron]

I install windows xp and I cannot find the recycle bin.
I have tried arranging by name etc but it does not
appear. I'm wondering if it is loaded and how I could
check that out

All you have to do is just right-click the desktop and then go to the
"Wallpaper" tab and see if all the check boxes are checked (including
Recycle Bin).

Select NameSpace.
On the Registry menu, click Import Registry File, and type
the path to the location of the registry file that was

Select the file name to which the registry key was saved,
click Open, and then click OK.
Quit Registry Editor, log off, and then log back on to the
