Do you need to Rename Recycle Bin in windows Xp

Follow these steps:
Open Registry editor (start > Run> then type "regedit" (without quotes) and press enter button
this will open registry editor
then follow this path  ...

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder
.
Then on the right pane you can find two binary values namely "Attributes" and "Call for Attributes"
Double click on "Attribute" and edit its value to 50,01,00,20 (it may be 40,01,00,20) and Double click "CallForAttribute" and then click the "decimal" radio button and enter value data 0 (zero). Refresh and close the registry and rightclick Recycle Bin you can see "Rename" option.

 Values to be modified
"Attributes"=hex:50,01,00,20
"CallForAttributes"=dword:00000000


Wrong settings in the registry may cause an unpredictable problem to your Windows. So carefully change the appropriate values.
