The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

[BUG] Delete from search results

Post by *Gral »

Delete from search results in panel doesn't remove item from list while file is actually deleted.

I presume that you mean deleting from the search result when it had been fed to listbox?

If works if I delete with Del or F8.
It does not work if I right-click and choose Delete - then the files stays visible in the listbox.
It also does not work (with Del or F8) is "Use Explorer delete method" is enabled.

If you can see the same file in the other file panel in a normal view, then the deleted file will only be removed automatically from that other panel if the setting "Refresh when files are created, deleted and renamed" is enabled.

It does not seem to matter whether you delete permanently or move to recycle bin (when "Use Explorer delete method" is not enabled).

The problem is that Windows does not give any feedback which files are deleted with the Explorer delete method - it's "fire and forget".
