Moving files from the recycle bin

I wanted to move some files from the recycle bin to a folder so decided to use Xplorer² rather than my normal way using the Windows recycle bin.

Manually tagged the files I wanted to move and it worked perfectly except the tags were not removed from the files in the recycle bin and they appeared to still be in the bin.

Refreshing the recycle bin proved that they were not there (Autorefresh was on).

Is this a feature of the special folders that they do not automatically get refreshed or is it a setting I've missed? The tips say "xplorer² senses changes occuring in any part of the filesystem (in most cases) and will automatically refresh all affected folder views" so I assume this is one of the cases when it does not refresh.

yes, unfortunately the recyclebin doesn't collaborate 100% with x2
still when you delete files from the bin (i.e. permanently) it should work!
