Hey jw if anyone else has the "recycling bin glitch", where the recycling bin icon turns on and off to it's own discretion. It's only on vista as far as I'm aware, and the only ways I've found to fix is 1) restart, 2) log out and log back in or 3)create a shortcut of the rb and then delete it. I doubt this bugs anyone else as much as it does me, but does anyone know how to fix it for good?

I would try resting the icon for it.

Other than that, no its not vista only.

We live in a society.

I use XP, and it happens here. It usually happens when I manually delete stuff inside the bin instead of using the "Empty Recycle Bin" command. It can be fixed by running CCleaner with "Empty Recycle Bin" checked (or by deleting a file and using Windows' Empty Recycle Bin function).

That bug has existed for as long as I can remember, and I've used even the oldest Windows version that had the recycle bin - Windows 95.

Oh so you mean that the icon seems full when it's not full? I thought you had some hybrid program that made a recycler icon appear on your system tray or so.

Anyway, is that REALLY annoying? The Desktop is the part I see the least when I'm on the computer and it actually has never happened to me.

Thats not the Recycling bin glitch we all know and love (Not really).

If it leavea a VOID, you should have said that first. On / off is like Full / Empty.

NudeRaider -- PSA: ASUS apparently decided their RMA department needs to "become profitable" and for a while now outright tries to scam customers. They were called out on it a year ago, promised to change, but didn't. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pMrssIrKcY so my recommendation: Stop buying ASUS, and if you already have and need something RMA'd, make sure to not let them bully you into paying.
