Today we’re going to share a tip on how to add the Recycle Bin to task bar, without modifying any system files. Although, we are showing the procedure for Recycle Bin, you can also follow it for Computer icon.
This can be done in two ways:

The following steps may be carried out to do this:1. Right click on task bar and select Toolbars -> New toolbar.…
2. In the New Toolbar window, type the following location in the Folder field:

3. That’s it. You’ll now able to see the quick launch menu. Now drag the Recycle Bin icon in quick launch bar, until Link appears in pop-up, and then drop it. It will create a shortcut inside the quick launch menu.
In this way, you will have successfully added the Recycle Bin to the task bar, under quick launch.
Way 2: Add Recycle Bin to task bar
1. Unlock the task bar. Create a New Folder on desktop, rename it as Recycle Bin, now drag the Recycle Bin icon over this folder until you see Create link in Recycle Bin inside pop-up, then release it. Copy the new folder(Recycle Bin) to Documents.2. Now Right click on task bar and move to Toolbars -> New toolbar. In the New Toolbar window, find the folder created in previous step from Documents.
3. Now Right click on the separator (vertical dotted line). in View section, check Large Icons. Also remove check from Show Text then Show Title. Thus you will see the Recycle Bin icon on the taskbar.
4. The Recycle Bin icon added in the previous step is in right side of task bar. To move it to the left, hold down the left-click on the separator line and drag it left until the pinned icons on task bar are inverted. The previously pinned icons will automatically move to right, thus leaving the Recycle Bin icon on the left side.
