Edit: I've just checked into some of this and it looks rather... weird.

A person has taken the regtweak, and modified the beginning piece of it and taken our names out and said it was by him.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

I know I shouldn't really think of it this way, but come on.

I'm going to modify the original post to fix this hopefully.

Facking Thief... LOL its an earlier version and it dosn't have the right click options

[cygnus]

:lol: I think it's all fixed now

[cygnus]

*first post updated*

[ricktendo]

The addon is kinda buggy I don't recommend it

[cygnus]

what do you mean?

[ricktendo]

When renaming the addon it adds a second recycle bin on the desktop... anlos the recycle bin is hidde on the desktop by default

[RaGhul]

Rick,

Fix the @#$% Addon already, would you?!?

Ok, I'll be nice...

Pretty please, with sugar on top?

[ricktendo]

If I had a magic wand Id gladly fix it

[rambo8521]

Nice work lads, smooth. I downloaded it though, and when I click it it just opens up C:\ , not the recycle bin. When I try to open the registry call (ie {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} ) it does the same too..!

Any ideas anyone? As far as I'm aware, my recycle bin is actually at E:\Recycled if that's any help...

Thanks for any advice,

rambo8521.

[trickyboi]

How can I uninstall it???

[ricktendo]

HMMM... I dunno how you could do this without messing up something... Why dot you just go into your start menu props and uncheck the option show recycle bin

[happyandyk]

downloaded the recyclermd file, rtclick, intsall, rebooted.

not workin in my vista ultimate. checkd in startmenu props>customize, the recycle bin option was checked. stil dznt appear !?

wat did i do wrong !?

[cygnus]

You used it on Vista. This reg tweak is for XP only right now. I haven't had the time to try and make it work for Vista, but maybe theres someone who can convert it to Vista for you.

:tumbleweed:

oops !

[ricktendo]

These should work with Vista, so I've put 'em here.

Default_Programs_Start_Menu.reg

Disable_InfoTips.reg

Recycle_Bin_Start_Menu.reg

[hyprltkid]

I downloaded it, but how do i install it?

[ricktendo]

I downloaded it, but how do i install it?

Right click on the .INF file and select install

[tpspoons]

I found this if anyone is interested: http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=85776

Oh and kinda unrelated by is there a way to swap my music for my videos? And with this can you put the recycle bin above the run and have run at the bottom?

If impossible then thanks anyway I was looking for this!

[steelew]

I can't get this to work on Vista home premium...any suggestions?

[cygnus]

It's for Windows XP only. I haven't tested this under Windows Vista.

[steelew]

Thanks, I saw others reply that were using vista so I assumed...
