How to: Rename the Recycle Bin.

25 February 2008 118 views No Comment



If you want a totally customized Windows XP, then renaming the Recycle Bin can be quite useful. You could rename it to trash, garbage [or pretty much anything you can imagine ;) ].

Follow these steps to rename the Recycle Bin:

1. Open up the Registry editor by typing regedit into the run box from the Start Menu.

2. Locate HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/CLSID/{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

3. Change the registry value “Recycle Bin” To anything. (Remember to exclude the quotes!)

And you’re done!
You may have to restart your PC to see the changes…
