Thread: Hide Recycle Bin Windows XP

  1. #1
    BEFORE EDITING THE REGISTRY ALWAYS TAKE A BACK-UP INCASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG! To take a Registry backup, open Registry Editor Go to File>Export and Export the whole registry, it takes around 200-250MB Space, for good measure, try to take a back up on a external device like, Portable HDD, Thumb Drive or CD/DVD.
    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Open Notepad By Going to Start>All Programs>Accessories>Notepad
    Copy Paste This Into it:



    Code:
    REGEDIT4
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\M$\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons]
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\M$\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\ClassicStartMenu]
    "{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\M$\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]
    "{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001



    Now Save The File As Hidebin.reg after saving, Right Click on the file and select 'merge' or just double click on the file. Refresh and No more Recycle Bin!

    If you want to bring it back, Open Notepad and Copy paste this:

    REGEDIT4
    Code:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\M$\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons]
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\M$\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\ClassicStartMenu]
    "{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000000
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\M$\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]
    "{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000000



    Save the file as Showbin.reg and Double click on it to merge it. Refresh and Recycle Bin Should be back. If not then, Restart.
