Repeat this process to rename the other icons.
The Recycle Bin
The Recycle Bin cannot simply be renamed, because Windows 95 must know its name in order to move deleted documents there and to empty its contents. Therefore you must use a small file called
lastez.reg (Recycle Bin = 'Lastez' in Breton). This file is available on Breizh.net by
clicking here while holding down the Shift key.
- Download the "lastez.reg" file to your Windows Desktop.
- Minimize all open windows by clicking on the
button (in the upper right corner of the window).
- Double-click on the
icon located on the Windows Desktop.
The following window will appear:
- Click the
'OK' button.'
The change will be visible after you restart Windows.
If you need to change the Recycle Bin name back to English, perform
the steps above using the
recyclebin.reg available here.
