It hides the Recycle Bin icon whether you're using the classic or new Start menu.

Use Notepad and copy and paste the following code into it:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\ClassicStartMenu]
"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]
"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001


Save the document and call it Hidebin.reg. Then double-click the file to import it into the registry.

Right-click on the desktop and click on Refresh.

Voilla! Your Recycle Bin has vanished from your PCs desktop.
