In an explorer window, go to Tools > Folder Options > View and select "Show hidden files and folders" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)", then go into the root of a hard drive partition (such as C:\) and go into the RECYCLER folder where you should find a recycle bin icon with a strange name. All of those recycle bins for all partitions should be linked, so you could just create a shortcut of it to your desktop and rename it and use it as you did the original, but it won't be exactly the same (shortcut indicator, context menu, and changing icon). Once that's done, you should re-enable hiding of system files.
If there is no recycler folder, then I guess you're screwed. I don't know how or why Windows would technically allow that. I would need to go hands-on and do some looking around if I was to help beyond my existing knowledge. I would suggest doing a repair installation of Windows, which doesn't lose personal data and only resets some settings and clears out all updates.
If it's a shameless joke, then shame on you for wasting my time when I could've been doing something that actually helped someone. That's punishable by death, or big phat expensive fines.
