CAUSE
This behavior can occur if you are using the net use or subst command to map drives.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.



MORE INFORMATION
When you have a folder mapped as a drive with the net use or subst command (possibly in the Autoexec.bat file), a Recycle Bin icon appears in the mapped folder.

If you right-click a Recycle Bin icon and then click Properties, you see a tab for each Recycle Bin.
