Compactor - Recycle Bin Tray Icon

Compactor is a Windows application that displays a compact Recycle Bin in the system tray.

It uses the built in Windows Recycle Bin icon for consistency with the rest of the system and updates using system events (such as the deletion of a file or folder) to update the icon, using less resources than other solutions.

Features
