This software provides a minimalist and efficient way to manage the Recycle Bin folder without cluttering the desktop, enhancing personal productivity.
MiniBin
MiniBin is a Windows application that adds a small Recycle Bin icon to the system tray, saving space on the display and enabling instant access to the list of deleted files. Moreover, it is possible to configure pop up notifications about certain events, keeping users informed without interrupting their workflow.
How it works
You can hover over the tray icon with a cursor to view the overall size of erased packages. Additionally, there is an option to quickly open the corresponding location and manually remove specific items.
Similar to FCleaner, the utility lets users wipe the contents of the Recycle Bin with a mouse click. This functionality is especially advantageous when working on a cluttered desktop.
