This occurs because the file isn't default. I acidently deleted mine and
when I re-added it I had 2 choices icon "Recycle Bin full" or icon
"Recycle Bin Empty" ( I clicked icon). To restore default icon that
shows when it is full and when it empty, do this:

Delete Recycle Bin Empty Icon from desktop-

Close all windows> right click desktop> click "personalize"> click
"change desktop icons"> If checked, uncheck "recycle bin"> Click apply,
OK> Recheck "Recycle Bin"> "apply"> "ok"> click "x" in right hand corner
(*do not click a recycle bin icon*)

Default Icon s restored.

Hello plm,
Please follow the procedures below. The recycle bin will show items
inside when you deleted something, and it will show "empty" when you
emptied the bin.
1.) delete your recycle bin from the desktop
2.) right click on an open space of the desktop
3.) click Personalize
4.) click Change Desktop Icons
5.) chekmark the box in front of the recycle bin
6.) click Recycle Bin (full), click Change Icon
7.) click Recycle Bin (full), click OK
8.) click Recycle Bin (empty), click Change Icon
9.) click Recycle Bin (empty), click OK
10.) clikc Apply/OK.
You're done. Please reply if it's ok now or not.

Spirit,

I don't think that's what the OP is looking for. Your answer would Delete
files and bypass the Recycled Bin entirely with no chance of recovery.

Just type in Microsoft

No Unchecking means it would NOT BYPASS RECYCLE BIN.
