    $enabledScopes = (Get-ADOptionalFeature -Filter 'name -like "Recycle Bin Feature"').EnabledScopes

    if ($enabledScopes)
    {
        Write-Output -InputObject 'Enabled'
    }
    else
    {
        Write-Output -InputObject 'Disabled'
    }
}

function Test-ADRecycleBin

{

$enabledScopes = (Get-ADOptionalFeature -Filter 'name -like "Recycle Bin Feature"').EnabledScopes

if ($enabledScopes)
