Deleted my waste basket

[Bob Baker]

I am running vista on my laptop and have just deleted the waste bin off my desk top. Anyone know how to get it back?

how about

using the system restore to a day or so before you deleted it?. Don't have Vista but I'm sure its on there somewhere, probably via the control panel and system icons, or try the help program to do a system restore.

BTW it's called "Recycle bin" on my vista desktop if you're trying to search for it.

I've tried searching for it, and even though I can see it, the "search" doesn't find it

I've a feeling this will help you: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/restore-missing-desktop-icons-in-windows-vista/

Easy - Open Windows explorer and at the very bottom you will see your recycle bin, Right click - Create Shortcut or Send to Desktop (same thing just a different method)
