Lesson 12: Removing objects from the desktop

Earlier in this tutorial, you created a new icon on the desktop.
Since everything you have done to this point has been just prac
tice, you may want to return the desktop back to its original
uncluttered state. This lesson explains how to remove objects from
the desktop and introduces the Recycle Bin.
1 Click the New Folder icon you created, drag it until it is over
the Recycle Bin icon and it changes color, then release the pri
mary button.
The icon disappears. But, with Windows 98, it is not really
gone. It is merely set aside in the Recycle Bin so that you can
restore or delete it later.
2 Repeat Step 1 for any other icons you created during this tuto
rial.
Each icon disappears as you drop it on the Recycle Bin.
3 Double-click the Recycle Bin icon.
Windows 98 opens the Recycle Bin window.
