  1. You can choose to display it or not in the Properties of the desktop.

    Hope that helps?


  2. re start ur computer...this happened to me too and lemme tell ya i scared too! lol  

  3. Just restart you computer and it should come back

  4. right click on ur desktop and add a shortcut. or go find the recycling bin in your programs and revive it.

  5. That certainly dosen't sound good. Try going in the start bar to search, and then "all files and folders." Type in recycle bin. The computer will search all your folders and system folders for the recycle bin. It should find it, then just replace the shortcut.

  6. i don't know. how do you delete it anyway? does it like but the recycle bin inside the recycle bin?

  9. well your computer might have something called desktop recovery where you can go back to before you deleted something and undelete it.

  10. omg! i did the same and been trying to figure it out too please tell me how if someone tells you how

  11. Try searching for it in the search tool in your start-up menu

    Then drag the application icon onto your desktop again

    The icon should be back, no problem

  12. If the restarting dosen't work just go in the control panel and search in files/documents for Trash bin, then left click and it should say add shortcut

  13. Just go to like the deleted stuff,

    and there it is  

  14. ctrl alt delete only works if thats the last thing you did or search for it with search

  15. Re-create the missing key.  I just looked it up and that's what it said.  I know the instructions I found are for deleting it, but it tells how to get it back.  Please look at it and tell me if it helps you.  I think it should.
