How to Rename Recycle Bin

Posted on 00:21 by Unknown

Recycle Bin is a folder on Windows desktop where the files you delete are stored until you do not permanently delete them. The benefit of the Recycle Bin folder is you can restore the files that you might have accidentally deleted. Various computer users use different name for this folder in their daily jargon. Few of the common names that have been using to refer this folder are garbage collector, garbage box, trash box, e-waste box, etc. Apart from this, some witty computer users use humorous names like Kachre-Ka-Dibba, Software-Disposal, etc. Using different slangs for referring Recycle Bin in daily jargon is quite easy and soothing; but changing its to the name you use for it in your daily jargon is not that easy. To change its name, you have to modify some Registry entries, which is the work of experts. But, after executing the following steps, you can also modify its name to a different name:

1. Click Start > Run.
2. Type Regedit in the Run window and press the OK button.
3. In Registry window expand the HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows >ShellNoRoam.
4. Click the MUICache option. A list of the available registry entries appears on the right side of Registry window.
5. Now, locate the @C:WINDOWSsystem32SHELL32.dll,-8964 key in that list.
6. After you have located the key, double-click the key. The Edit String window opens.
7. Now, replace the text "Recycle Bin" with the name that you want for it and Click the OK button.
8. Restart the computer.

However, while modifying the name of Recycle Bin, if you modify any wrong registry entry then the function related to that registry key can be affected. Therefore, be careful while playing with registry entries.
