Anyway to retrieve the Recycle Bin without > re-installing Vista? To prevent deletion of the Recycle Bin in the future, do this.. 1. Launch regedit 2. In Regedit, navigate to the following key: HKCR\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} 3. To create a new registry Key called 'Shell', click on the Edit Menu, New, select: Key and name it 'Shell'. You should now have: HKCR\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\Shell 4. Under Shell create a new (Sub) Key called 'Delete'. Click on the Edit Menu, New, select: Key. You should now have: HKCR\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\Shell\Delete 5. Edit the 'Default' REG_SZ, as this is just a string value for display you could set to anything you like, for example 'YourName's Indestructible Bin'.
