Description
Removes the Properties option from the Recycle Bin context menu.
If you enable this setting, the Properties option will not be present when the user right-clicks on Recycle Bin or opens Recycle Bin and then clicks File. Likewise, Alt-Enter does nothing when Recycle Bin is selected.
If you disable or do not configure this setting, the Properties option is displayed as usual.
