How do you rename the Recycle Bin ????


Thanks..........................


:cool:
 
To rename the Recycle Bin open up the Registry and drill down to:-
HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Software / Microsoft / Windows / ShellNoRoam / MUICache and double-click the Name that corresponds to Recycle Bin. Then change the ValueData to whatever you like, and click OK.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
change the Default (it's probably blank), to whatever you want ie. Crap Trap. These are two possible addresses to change the name of the Recycle Bin.
OR TRY THIS
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
 
Sorry Famine,
I missed a little bit of info from the last part. If you drill down to here:-
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder

and change the Attributes to:-
50,01,00,20

This will allow you to change the name of the Recycle Bin from the Desktop. Just right-click the Bin and you will have a "Rename" option.
 
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder

That didnt work... :-(



HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre
ntVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
change the Default (it's probably blank)


That worked !!! After a restart !!!!!


:cool:
 
I just re-tried the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT tweak and it worked.
Did you change both the "Attributes" and the "Call for Attributes"
 
ya.... still no option to rename.........

Oh well ............................................................

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
