Imp's Recycle Bin Description

Imp's Recycle Bin is a lightweight widget that creates a copy of the Recycle Bin and drops it on the desktop. It comes with several icons, and can be easily installed and configured, even by users with no experience in software programs. The interface of the tool consists of a very small frame which you can move to any position on the screen by using the mouse cursor. When it has no contents, the recycle bin shows an "Empty" label. Otherwise, the tool displays the total containing items and the size they occupy on the disk. Permanently deleting them from the computer can be done with the simple click of a button in the main frame. By accessing the context menu, you can go to the Options screen, in order to choose one of the five available skins for the recycle bin. In addition, it is possible to view and edit some properties when it comes to the location, custom size and confirmation dialog, among others. Thanks to the default settings provided by the operating system, you can make Imp's Recycle Bin stay on top of all the other windows, as well as adjust its opacity level. The tool is not a concern to the computer's resources, since it runs on a low amount of CPU and system memory. It has a good response time and worked smoothly during our tests, without causing the operating system to hang, crash or display error dialogs. On the downside, Imp's Recycle Bin has not been updated for a long time and does not provide extra functionality compared to Windows' default Recycle Bin, but merely a more stylish alternative.
