Or... If recent, run System Restore and roll-back to when the recycle bin
was last seen on the desktop. Mart "Rick T" wrote in message ... Nomad wrote: Well, my dear, sweet mother (using WinME) has lost the desk top icon of her recycle bin. How can she get it back? -- Nomad Find a 'Recycle Bin' in your filesystem somewhere and 'Send To' Desktop. Rick

How can she get it back? -- Nomad Get TweakUI from Microsoft http://tinyurl.com/4k8th Under the Desktop tab you can add and remove the Recycle Bin icon at will. But change the other settings with care as they can cause problems as it is a powerful tool and was really intended for Windows 905 & 98. Regards Mike.
