Seems to me there is an issue with Folder Deletion Setting Focus Randomly?
Win7 x64
Salamander 3.0
I'm deleting directories/directory trees, & instead of focus after the deletions being somewhere expected, it ends up somewhere unexpected.
Like I may end up at the top of the (now existing) directory list, or at the bottom.
Or, if things go right, I'll end up just where expected, most likely the directly immediately below the previous focus point (or something like that).
I've had the sort order mostly by Size.
And I'm Shift+Deleting all the time.

I saw this problem on my computer but cannot reproduce it now with Win7. Could you please sort items by Date/Time if you can reproduce it with such setup?
Edit: is it possible another process is changing your files or directories in the working directory while you deleting?

I had already kind of tried setting the sort by Name, but more often Size has been appropriate, though when I was not sorted by Name, I believe (but not sure) that it was OK.
I'll give it more of a ringing & see what I can make it do...

Well anything is possible, but (AFAIK) it's not like I'm running anything different or new, or that should cause the behavior I'm seeing - except for 3.0.
