Is there a way to change the Recycle bin icons (both full and empty) on Windows 11?

I dont want to use a third party app i was just wondering if there are any options embedded in windows

Asking because the full icon is very hard to distinguish from the empty one.

Thanks

And in 11, it's settings/personalization/Desktop Icons Settings which take you to the old GUI as posted above.
