Media Monkey 4.1.15.1830
When working under the My Computer node i.e. working directly with files and folders and not the library there is an inconsistency.
- If you select a single file and press deleted you get a confirmation popup before the file is deleted.
- If you select a directory and press delete the folder and all its contents are deleted immediately without any confirmation.
Surely you should also get a confirmation popup on directory deletion. Otherwise the popup on file deletion should be removed (deletion sends the files to the recycle bin so you can undo the deletion.)

Re: User Interface Inconsistency on Delete
The default behaviour in Windows 8, 8.1 & 10 is to not show the system deletion confirmation dialog on folder deletion.

Personally I would rather not see the file deletion dialog. Perhaps MediaMonkey should have its own option to enable or dissable deletion prompts and not rely on system wide configuration options.

Re: User Interface Inconsistency on Delete
I personally would want to see this. It's too easy to end up removing files by accident.
