Remove Recycle Bin

1) Choose 'Start | Run' and type Regedit in the 'Open' bar. Click 'OK'.

2) Now browse to the following location:
'HKEY_ LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Explorer\HideDesktop Icons\NewStartPanel\'

3) Create a new DWORD value and give it the following name:
'{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}'

4) Double-click this and change its value to '1'.

5) Quit Registry Editor, then right-click an empty space somewhere on your desktop and choose 'Refresh'.

6) The Recycle Bin icon will magically disappear from the desktop.
You can get it back again at any time by changing the value back to '0'.
