Hi jk38,

This can happen easily if you accidently click on "Delete" instead of
"Empty Recycle Bin" when you right click on the Recycle Bin. This will
show you how to get it back on the desktop.

If you have a problem with it still showing as full or empty after you
restore it, then see:

Click Start, point to Settings | Control Panel, click Display. In the
Display Properties panel click Desktop tab then click Customize Desktop...
button. In Desktop Items panel under General tab click Restore Default
button.

Good luck

Right click your desktop, Personalize, on the left pane select 'Change
Desktop Icons'. Put a check on the 'Recycle Bin'. Click Ok. And you're good
to go.
