Get fully functional Recycle Bin on your Taskbar
If you're constantly working with lots of files and documents, then you probably want to always have a Recycle Bin at hand. You can agree that quite uncomfortable to minimize all open windows just to get the Recycle Bin icon on the desktop. And the best place for its location is the taskbar. Firstly, in this Recycle Bin arrangement you get quick access to its functions, and secondly, you can always watch its contents.
Until now, neither standard system tools nor third-party software products allowed users to get the Recycle Bin in the taskbar in a quick and easy way. The number of votes for this feature on a dedicated Windows Uservoice website has exceeded 16 000 but Microsoft is not in a hurry with its implementation.
Recycle Bin on Taskbar

Also our products allow you to put the Recycle Bin onto secondary taskbars as well, providing the smooth unified operating method on any monitor. Now you can put an additional button onto the system taskbar, and this button looks and behaves exactly as the system Recycle Bin icon on the desktop:
- You can drag-n-drop documents onto it to put them into the Recycle Bin
- You can left-click it to open a folder window showing the Recycle Bin contents
- You can right-click it to invoke the Recycle Bin context menu (e.g. to empty the bin)

If you want to disable this feature for some reason, you need to do the following steps:
- Open the program settings
- Select Multiple Monitors section
- Go to the Taskbar panel
- Find System Taskbar settings and turn off Recycle Bin feature
