Rename your Recycle Bin !


To change the name of the Recycle Bin desktop icon,
  • Click Start then goto Run, write type Regedit and press Enter. It opens Registry Editor. Now in Registry Editor go to:
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/CLSID/{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
  • Now Open the ShellFolder folder
  • Change the Attributes data value from 40 01 00 20 to 50 01 00 20. Once completed change the CallForAttributes dword value to 0x00000000 (double-click and change value data to 0).

Lock your Desktop within Seconds!


If you are leaving your computer for a while and do not wish to turn it off, but want to assure that no-one else can use the computer while you are away, locking the desktop is the best option.

By pressing WINDOWSKEY+L, you password protect your system just as if you had logged out or restarted the computer. The advantage is that any programs or processes that were running when you locked the desktop will stay open and running in the background, ready for you to resume work or play.
