the windows vista recycling bin is magical
It disappears, randomly and frequently. I put it back on there every time, and sometimes when I delete a file, I go to delete it out of the recycling bin BUT WHAMMY! It's gone again.
Kind of amusing after the annoyingness wears off.
Vista bug perhaps?

I've seen this happen a couple of times in vista. It hasn't happened recently though.scottayy wrote:It disappears, randomly and frequently. I put it back on there every time, and sometimes when I delete a file, I go to delete it out of the recycling bin BUT WHAMMY! It's gone again.

I just googled it. Looks like lots of people are having the same problem. I didn't know that you can right click on the icon and choose 'delete' (which will delete the recycling bin icon). I never empty the bin that way so that's not my problem. But it does seem like a pretty stupid place for the delete option, considering many people are wanting to delete the content of the recycling bin.

No, it disappears. I have to 'right click on desktop -> personalize -> change desktop icons' to get it back.wasir wrote:may be the icons are changed. there are two seperate icons for both filled and empty recycle bin. probably the icon for filled recycle bin is changed to blank.
