Change the text on your Recycle Bin By BlackAce227

This small article will help you change the text of your Recycle Bin.

Ok then, here we go. First off, you are going to need notepad and a small registry script that I provide for you. Now then, first open notepad and copy the following lines of code into the notepad.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder] "Attributes"=hex:50,01,00,20 "CallForAttributes"=dword:00000000

Then hit save as. You want to save it as rename recycle bin.reg. This will make it a “registry patch”. When you open it, there will be a message box. Click yes when you see it. Then another message box will appear. Click OK. Now you’re all finished! Go to your recycle bin and right click on it. Now there should be a rename button. Click it to rename the recycle bin just as you would any other file. Hope you learned something from this! Enjoy!
