But there's more...

I just deleted all the PDFs in my test library - and they all went to the recycle bin, but I can't restore them to where I had them, because they were moved to another place before they were deleted and that other place has gone.

The other regulars will recognise those 'funny' folder names from other threads relating to file name lengths.

So I think there is a real problem, on Windows at least, maybe others can do some tests to confirm they're see what I'm seeing - including linux & os/x.

I have posted at launchpad to draw the issue to Kovid Goyal's attention - https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/1242864

@RPGoldman - if your original post had been less belligerent, and not tacked onto the back of an ancient thread, then we may have reached this point sooner.
