Adding rename option to right click menu of the Recycle Bin

[Jackie]

Rename the Recycle Bin in one click!

A small modification of the registry to rename the Recycle Bin easily via the menu (accessible by the right mouse button).

A little simple trick, which doesn't affect anything but provides more fun!

Just what you have to do is:

• Copy the Code below in notepad file and save it as renamerecyclebin.reg
  
  

• 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

• Now right click on file and click on merge.
  
  
• Now enjoy ! by simply right clicking on Recycle Bin and rename it.

Hi guy's

Samael ..... XP is different is all!

Jackie's method is just the best. All the other methods I have tried eventually revert back to the original Microsoft bin name (and it's "Corbeille" in French! Does my head in!). Jackie's method is simple safe and permanent PLUS You can change the bin name at will on a whim! I love it. Thanks again Jackie.
