v5.4.0.2
when there are items in recycle bin, and i empty them in xplorer2.
xplorer2 is not refreshing. items still show.

u have to REFRESH or Press Recycle Bin again, for xplorer2 to show recycle bin folder EMPTY.

is it a bug or feature in xplorer2?

thx

sorry this is a result of something else I did to make recycle bin faster, so you need to manually refresh it

no problem, maybe in future releases

Hello,
Will this issue be solved in the next update "5.5"?

what i did was the less of 2 evils, so it must stay as it is

out of words really
updates are to improve software, not send them backwards.
"i mean u made such a professional/great software, i don't think that u cannot improve it."

u r the dev of the software, so i guess it is ur call.

as there are only 24 hours in a day, I must decide what's important to fix and concentrate my efforts
I don't think anybody's use of file management is affected severely by pressing CTRL+R for the recycle bin once every blue moon, no?

It's F5 on my system (Windows 10).

"Blue moons" occur too often for me!!

I do recycle bin management about once a week and usually delete large numbers of files, in smallish blocks. Repeatedly having to refresh is a bit of a PITA.

Any chance of a New Year resolution to restore auto-refresh on the recycle bin?

Happy New Year to Nikos, his family and all forum members.

without this "fix" getting into the recycle bin was much more of a PITA, took ages to read contents

I take it that's a "NO".

O.K. Second request. Would it possible to remember the position in the list, either before or after the deleted files, rather than going to the top of the list?

I know I can, before I do a refresh, select the file before or after the files I have deleted, but that requires me to remember to do it. There isn't enough memory left in my brain to always do that!!

the workaround there would be to select a nearby file you did NOT delete before you hit refresh, that will be remembered

Read my post again. That's what I do!!
But, if I forget and I'm returned to the top of the list, the air is blue!!

I thought about a Macro, but sometimes I want to select the file before the deleted section and sometimes it's the file after. I don't see how a Macro can decide which. I think it's easier to teach my brain to remember!
