Title: My recycle bin is gone
Post by: _|^656 on February 12, 2009, 09:10:55 am

That's it, somehow my recycle bin is gone. I can't find it anywhere - desktop, explorer, start menu, control panel - basically anywhere. Dunno if this is a virus or not, since nothing else happens - not yet maybe.
So... anyone know a way to get around this? And don't tell me to reinstall, I don't own the cd.
Also I heard of some softwares that replace the function of recycle bin. Are those wares any good?

Did you delete it by accident? Check your recycle bin and restore it from there :-)

It might just have somehow been placed outside your desktop. Try sorting the contents of your desktop.

How do you lost it. You can move it outside decktop. But you can find it in any file manager.

You can use a utility like Tweak XP to repair the recycle bin.
