Missing Icons from the desktop. E.g. Recycling Bin


Recommended Posts

Greetings,

 

Amazingly, today, a simple operation like organizing the icons on the

desktop seems to have wiped out the recycling bin... Don´t want to point

fingers, but really, I did not do anything else....

 

Can anyone tell me how to re-add the icon to my desktop? I would appreciate

it.

 

Regards,

 

Jean-Pierre

Right click on your desktop.

Click the "properties" tab

Click "desktop"

Click "customize desktop"

There is a restore "defaults button"

wheels,

 

Thank you for the prompt response. I tried your approach, but, somehow, it

did not work for me.

 

However, I also tried the response from Rey, altering the registry, and that

worked fine.

 

Regards,

Rey,

 

Thank you for the prompt response. I checked the information on the link you

sent me and fixed the problem by editing the Registry. I had a backup copy of

the Registry but chose not to reload it due to some alterations I have made.

 

Regards,
