How to rename the Recycle Bin in Windows?

How to rename the Recycle Bin in Windows?

Not many of us know on how to rename the "Recycle Bin" in Windows Xp. Lucky for you, I've found a way to rename it after surfing and googling on the Net. All you have to so is to edit the registry value.

Here's how to do it:-

Go to Start >> Run

Type regedit.exe and hit enter and it will open the Registry Editor.

Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ ShellNoRoam\MUICache

You’ll find probably something like this: @C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHELL32.dll,-8964.

Change it’s value to what you want the Recycle Bin’s name to be. Like "Recycle Bin" to "BIN".

Note: Modifying the Registry may harm your system if you're changing the wrong settingss. Make sure you have a backup. Do it at your own risk.

I would like to share some exciting news with everyone. I recently discovered Orbasoft Antispyware (http://orbasoft.com) and it’s the best scanner that I’ve used so far. It picks the same type of bugs that the better known and more expensive scans do and it’s so easy to get. The antispyware solution from Orbasoft is the perfect solution for taking care of your computer. I know it’s made a difference for me and I’m so glad that I gave it a try. I really believe that you will benefit from this scan as much as I have and I recommend that you give it a try.
