Hi Daniel

This is more a user setting than a machine specific setting. You'd
typically put all the user accounts in an OU, link a GPO to that OU and then
use the policy settings under User Configuration -> Administrative
Templates -> Desktop.

Hi Daniel

Sorry I was looking at my XP client. Under windows 2000 you could attempt
to identify the registry value that control visibility of the recycle bin
and create a custom administrative template:

Kind regards
