Thanks for the feedback!

Could you type "Shell:RecycleBinFolder" into the address bar and see if it works?

No, the result is the same

Please try reinstalling Files. (You can export your settings in Files settings > Advanced > Export/Import)

By the way, this problem disappears after rebooting or terminating Files.

reinstalling Files

I tried it. After a while this happens again.

Is this only when Files is set as the default?

To be honest, I haven't tried otherwise...😅😅😅 Then you will have to open the basket by inserting its address into the address bar, and I only found out about it today...😅

But I can say for sure that it must remain in the background, otherwise it will restart every time, and as we know, restarting cures this problem.

I checked, this problem does not depend on the fact that Files is installed by default.

I too have this exact problem, I'm using files preview 3.4.17.0 and am on Winfows 10 10.0.19045.4529.
Quiting files or ending the task from task manager seems to fix it termporarily, but the problem starts reappearing after a while
