Recycle Bin
The Recycle Bin serves as a temporary storage space for files and folders that have been accidentally or intentionally removed from the computer. An object that you remove from the computer is not permanently erased; instead, it is placed in the Recycle Bin. This enables users to retrieve mistakenly erased items without requiring the use of data recovery tools or contacting technical help.
Usually found on the desktop, the Recycle Bin icon resembles a garbage can with a downward-pointing arrow. The icon will be empty when the Recycle Bin is empty.
