Add the Recycle Bin to List of Places in My Computer

recycle binAdding a shortcut to the Recycle Bin is easy if you know how to edit your system registry. Here’s how:

First go to the Windows Start Menu and click on Run. Type “regedit” to launch the windows registry tool. Next, go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerMyComputerNameSpace. It may be a good idea to backup your registry at this point. After creating a back-up, create a new key named {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} under the NameSpace section. Go back to your My Computer window and the Recycle Bin should be there.
