Open the Start menu, locate Desktop icon settings, and press Enter. You should find the option to turn off the Recycle Bin Desktop icon.

You can conceal all icons via the right-click menu, or prefer an alternative method: rename the recycling bin without a label, turn off grid alignment, and move it off the screen.

I share the same setup on my computer. People's messy desktops really stress me out.
