Remove Properties from the Recycle Bin context menu

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.
