My recycle bin icon exists, but the name is gone!
So I wanted to rename my recycle bin something funny,
like Oscar's House (like Oscar the Grouch). I used the tweak from tweakxp.com and the microsoft site. I got the pulldown menu option, "rename". And I tried to rename my bin. I accidentally hit the delete key, and now there's no description under the icon. I can still right-click and select "empty recycle bin", but when I select properties, nothing happens. When I try to rename the icon, nothing happens. Any suggestions? Write back to me at: |
