If you like having easy access to your Windows Recycle Bin, but do not like having it as a desktop icon, then move it to the taskbar. Unfortunately, this is not a straightforward operation, but this article titled "Place a Fully Functional Recycle Bin on your Windows 7 Taskbar" shows you exactly how to do it.
Essentially, you have to do some trickery with the Quick Launch Toolbar to get this trick to work, but when all is said and done, you will have a functional Recycle Bin on your taskbar.
I personally have not tried this trick as I do not mind having the Recycle Bin on my desktop. Is this icon something that bothers you and if so, is this workaround acceptable?

I just tried it out . Very nice tweak .
Interesting. I actually like it on my desktop as well. I think I’d actually hate having it on my taskbar xD
