Description
Create a nested directory temp\sub. Open the parent of temp in the left pane, temp\sub in the right pane. Try to delete temp in the left pane. Get an error:
Command 'MoveToTrash' raised error.
Traceback (most recent call last):

Research direction
Reproduce the Windows case with temp\sub open in the opposite pane, then trace MoveToTrash through fman/fs.py, mother_fs.py, core/fs/local.py, core/trash.py, and send2trash/plat_win.py. Done means deleting the parent directory moves it to the Recycle Bin without the reported error code 120.
