Solved Recycle Bin in taskbar - how to remove it

[Jaro369]

Hello,

I have uncommon problem - I have a Recycle Bin on my taskbar (not sure how it ended there - some app put it there perhaps).
There is no way to remove it - no possibility to drag it away from there, right click gives you only the same options as right clicking RB on Desktop /Open; Empty; Pin to Start; Create shrotcut; Properties (bin only)/. It is not visible as toolbar so I cannot disable it that way either. Attaching screenshot.
Does anyone have an idea how to deal with it?

I am using Win8.1 Enterprize x64

Best regards,
Jarek

I have the same thing. I dont know how it got there either. It just appeared there randomly one day. Im running Windows 10 x64 Pro so it isnt just a Win 8.1 thing.

Thank you for sharing.
Now does anybody have solution to that - some kind of Regedit fix (I suppose that all taskbar functions and icons displayed are there somwhere) or some tweaking app that allows you to customize taskbar including pinned programs?

SOLVED.
Responsible was Actual Multiple Monitors app that had option on to put Recycle Bin on Taskbar.
This option had to be added in last update - that's why appeared suddenly.

I never would have thought of that. I use Actual Window Manager which is their top level solution, incorporating Actual Multiple Monitors among others. Ill look into that. Thanks for posting this.

Found the option and disabled it. Much better. Thank you.
