Little Miss Butterfingers?


Sila gelakkan saya. I did the unthinkable and deleted my Recycle Bin last night. "Mana boleh delete recycle bin", you say? Cuba try test right-click on that Recycle Bin icon (for PC users) and select "Delete". There you go, you've just deleted your Recycle Bin. Congratulations for screwing up, and let's all join my club!

Some would argue that you can never "delete" your Recycle Bin per say (Thank God for that), but you know, when that familiar icon is gone, and you get that racing heartbeat like all the times you know you fumbled, you call the cards for what it is: your recycle bin has disappeared! Oh no-s!

But Google lives for dunce people like moi. In fact, I should think Google was invented for people who thrives at fumbling like ol' bumbling me! Mr. Goo linked me to Mr. Pedia, who had all the answers when Yahoo!Answers and other random forum sites where inaccessible (Read: Server Not Found and Page Cannot Be Loaded).

The scoop is right about Recycle Bins being un-delete-able. It just gets hidden. Silly people like me who use Windows Vista (not that we're silly for using Vista, but rather, we are silly AND we use Vista as our OS), heed these beautiful words:
If the Recycle Bin icon has been deleted from the desktop screen, the following actions can restore it (in Windows Vista ) - clicking: Right click->Personalization->and then click "change desktop icons" from the left-hand column at the top. From there just check Recycle Bin and click OK. If it doesn't appear on the desktop, restart computer.--Wikipedia
Problem is solved, and you are one step closer to becoming a full-fledged IT geek. Awesome possum, innit?
