RE: Why do we see FileDispostionInformation DeleteFil e FALSE?

Actually this is not what I am seeing. I am moving a directory to the
recycle bin. There is none of this going on for the directory which I am
moving. But there is for some subset of the files and directories down
(way down) the tree rooted at the one directiry I am moving.

I have found that I also see this when I am maving the directory
elsewhere, as in not to the recycle bin.

The Windows Explorer, when moving a file to the Recycle Bin will:

  • Open the file for delete access
  • Mark the file to be deleted (prevents anyone else from getting a handle on
    it)
  • Rename the file
  • Reset the delete disposition.
  • Close the file
