Wesley,

There are many ways to do this but sometimes creating a text doc then
deleting to recycle bin then deleting the recycle bin sometimes works, but
another way is this:

Create a new Shortcut
Paste in this line:
%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe shell32.dll,SHUpdateRecycleBinIcon
Click NEXT
Click FINISH

Now double-click the icon when the recycle bin is empty, which should
replace the recycle bin icon to the correct one

Please note: If this doesn't work then its because its a Win32 API & is used
in programming, but the LockWorkstation function in the User32.dll doesn't
take any parameters & returns an Integer just like this function so it
should work This function is held within the Shell32.dll

Please post back your findings

Cheers,

Try this first.

Right click the Desktop | Click Properties | Click the Desktop tab |
Click the Customize Desktop button | Click on the Recycle Bin (full) icon
|
Click the Restore Default button | Scroll over to the right and click on
the
Recycle Bin (empty) icon | Click the Restore Default button

Restore Default button:
[[Click to use the Windows default icon for the selected desktop item.]]

You may have to reboot, I have no idea.

If that doesn't work, go here...
