How to rename the Recycle bin

Method 1:
Click Start / Run Type regedit and press enter. Open the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT folder Open the CLSID folder Open the {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} folder 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). You must change both of these values to get the rename to appear. After performing the above steps you will be able to rename the icon like any other icon. Right-click the Recycle Bin icon on the desktop and click Rename and rename it to whatever you wish

Method 2:
Open a text file and paste below text
Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder] "Attributes"=hex:50,01,00,20 "CallForAttributes"=dword:00000000

Now save this text file as a .reg file, such as "Rename Recycle Bin.reg" and put it wherever you like. Double click on the file, and when it asks you if you want to import it into the registry, choose Yes. You'll notice a new option in the right-click menu to Rename the Recycle Bin. You can also rename it by highlighing the Bin and hitting F2, or by highlighting it and clicking on the file name (just like renaming any other file.If you want to turn off this new feature, make another .reg file with the same content as above, but change the first number in the "Attributes"=hex: line from 50 to 40 and import that file into the registry.


Method 3:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\MUICache5. Double click on the following value:@C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHELL32.dll,-8964

Change the value to whatever you wish.
