    Just googled and found this:

    Quick Instructions to Find the Lost Recycle Bin

    1) Right click the Vista Desktop
    2) Click on Personalize
    3) Select: 'Change desktop icons'
    4) At the Desktop Icon Settings, place a tick next to: 'Recycle Bin'.



    Ps I dont have Vista so cant try it. Hope it works.

    I google pretty much anything I need to know before looking anywhere else. Only takes a few seconds and can save a lot time. Glad it worked :)
