    Retain File Names no name mangling when move/ cut from Recycle Bin

    Retain File Names without name mangling when Move/ Cut select Files from Recycle Bin to a selected location

    Retain File Names without name mangling when Move/ Cut select Files from Recycle Bin to a selected location
    Move/ Cut select Files from Recycle Bin to a selected location retaining File Names without name mangling?
    "Windows Behavior" when cutting/ pasting or drag-dropping the files to some location/ folder, all the names are mangled.
    Names are mangled like this: $REA9O58.xxx
    The only option Recycle Bin gives is:

    • Restore
      (do not wish for files to go back and mixup with other files in Original Folder) or
    • Cut
      (When pasted or Drag & Dropped to new location, the original name is mangled).

    Any way around this to put select files into other location folders from Recycle Bin?

    PS: OS: Win 8.1 x64

    Gathering Names Of Multiple Files

    Is it possible to get the names of multiple files and paste them in to Notepad or Word or something?

    Not sure how clear that is - I've got a folder with lots and lots of films from holidays etc. I've spent ages renaming them all to something meaningful (Other than Mov0001, Mov0002 etc etc)
    Unfortunatly, at the time, I didn't think to copy and paste the names in to a file as I did each one. But now people want to know what things I've got - so I want a list of all the names without having to type each one out seperately.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Recent File List

    Remove-ItemProperty -Path "Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
    \Applets\Paint\Recent File List" -name file1

    Remove-ItemProperty -Path "Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

    Remove-ItemProperty -Path "Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
    \Applets\Paint\Recent File List" -name file9
    ...

    you get the idea. ( too lazy to put it in a for loop and test it.

    or just open regedit and remove all the fileX from that key.
