Microsoft Vista - Lost Recycle Bin?

I feel so stupid but I cannot find my recycle bin anywhere. With Microsoft Vista everytime I log on I either have extra things or things missing and the recycle bin is among the missing today. I did a search but came up with no results. Anybody any idea how to get this back? I need it in order to restore an item that I deleted. Thanks for any help.

The 'Delete' option when right-clicking the Recycle Bin is new, giving you the option of removing the shortcut from your desktop easily. To restore it you can go Start-%26gt;Control Panel-%26gt;Appearance and Personalization-%26gt;Personalization and then click "change desktop icons" from the left-hand column. From there just check Recycle Bin and click OK.

As for other thing appearing and disappearing, are you using some kind of registry cleaner or optimizer? Some of these things can cause a lot of problems if it flags and removes critical system files
