Recycle Bin is a holding area for files and folders that are held before final deletion on a PC with Windows installed. You may sometimes delete some files accidentally, or even intentionally, and you may want to have them back. In such cases the Recycle Bin is very useful, as otherwise such files would be lost. I would like to give a tip related to the Recycle Bin, and it will be useful to you if you feel like changing the name of your recycle bin. You can rename it to whatever you want by following these easy steps:
1. Go to Start menu and click on Run.
2. Here type regedit.exe after which press Enter to find the regedit editor.
3. Next click to open the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT folder. Once you have done this, open the CLSID folder and then the {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} folder and then ShellFolder folder.
4. You will see the numbers “40 01 00 20?. Change them to “70 01 00 20?.
5. You will see the option to rename the recycle bin next time you switch on your computer. Just follow the steps that will be written on the screen.
One might wonder why bother with such changes? It is the same reason people make modifications to their car, even though it might not increase the performance. It is simply a fun thing to do, and if you manage to do it on your own, you will feel better about yourself. After all, making such modifications is a sign of being a proficient PC user.
