Renaming the Recycle Bin? Help!

[Ferrari600]

I'm almost possitive it is possible to rename the recycle bin icon. If any of you could help me and tell me which files to edit in the reg (or if there is an easier way), i would be really greatful. Thanks.

Hi Ferrari600, there are two ways you acn acomplish this.

1.)

Rename the Recycle Bin
(by Perris, aka "Dealer")
Make your way here :
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF
040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\
ShellFolder
change "Attributes" to show 50,01,00,20
change "CallForAttributes" to show 00000000
now you just right click on the bin, and "rename" becomes available.

2.)


Or, paste this into a txt file and rename it to xx.reg:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645F
F040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder]
"Attributes"=hex:70,01,00,20
"CallForAttributes"=dword:00000000

Sazar, im running XP, the properties menu has file limit configurations and other such settings, no renaming field.
