How to hang a trash can on the taskbar?

To pin a shortcut to the taskbar (next to the Start button), simply drag it to the desired position, or right-click on it and select "Pin to Taskbar".

  2. A new window will now appear where you need to copy the following text: explorer.exe shell:RecycleBinFolder
  3. Click "Next". Now enter the name of the shortcut, e.g. "Recycle Bin", and click "Finish"

A new shortcut will appear on the Desktop, you need to change the icon.

  1. Right-click on it and then on "Properties".
  2. Click the "Shortcut" tab and then the "Change icon".
  3. A new window will open. Copy the following text at the top: %SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll 
  4. A set of icons will appear below, scroll a little and you will see a trash can icon.
  5. Select it and click "Ok", then close the first window.

  2. Method: Right-click on the icon and select "Pin to Taskbar".

That would be it.
