    Fortunately, there are various ways using which users can fix Recycle Bin icon not updating in Windows 11 or Windows 10. Let’s start with the first method.

    Reset Folder View

    Press Windows key and then in the Start Menu, type File Explorer Options, and when a similar option appears in the results click to open it.

    File Explorer Options

    Reset Folders

    Click on OK to save the changes you have made.

    Make Changes To The Registry

    Another way to fix Recycle bin refreshing issue is by tweaking a registry on your PC. Here’s how you can do that:

    Click on the Search icon available on the Taskbar and type Registry Editor and when it appears in the results, click to open it.

    Registry Editor

    In the Registry Editor, navigate to the following path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\DefaultIcon

    Now on the right side, double-click on (Default) DWORD to edit it.

    Default

    By default, its Value Data would be %SystemRoot%\System32\imageres.dll.-54. You need to add 0 to the end of the Value Data. So after making changes, it should look like this: %SystemRoot%\System32\imageres.dll.-54,0

    Edit String

    Once done, click on OK. Now, close the Registry Editor and restart your PC to save the changes you made.
