Move Recycle Bin to Windows 7 Taskbar
Problem: How to move Recycle Bin icon on Taskbar?

Solution: There is a way of moving a fully functional Recycle Bin to your Windows 7 Taskbar, so you can clear off your desktop once and for all with little to no compromise.

Instructions to perform this task in Windows 7:
STEP 1. Right click on the Windows 7 Taskbar, navigate to Toolbars and click New toolbar.
STEP 2. When asked to provide a folder directory, enter the following path: %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch.
STEP 3. After that, a labeled Quick Launch bar should appear near the clock.
STEP 4. Right click on the Taskbar and uncheck Lock the taskbar, if it isn’t already. Now, right click on your Quick Launch bar and uncheck Show text, as well as Show title. Finally, right click and navigate on View to select the size that your Recycle Bin icon will be.

STEP 5. With the Quick Launch bar configured, all you have to do is drag and drop the Recycle Bin onto it.

STEP 6. When you are satisfied with the position of your Quick Launch bar, relock the Taskbar and hide the Recycle Bin on your desktop by right-clicking an empty space and selecting Personalize, then clicking Change desktop icons in the left column of the Personalization window and unchecking the appropriate box.
