Recycle Bin is a location where deleted files are temporarily stored in every version of Microsoft Windows since Windows 95. The Recycling Bin allows users to recover files that have been deleted in Windows. The image to the right is an example of what the Recycle Bin may look like in your version of Windows; it can be found on the Desktop.
Use Of Shift Key
When deleting the file, press and hold the Shift key and then press the Delete key together. This is a great shortcut key for users who may want to keep the option of sending files to the Recycle Bin by default, but still be able to delete and not send some files to the Recycle Bin.
