It should normally not happen, But depending on situation it can.
MC do not keep a lock on the folder. So normally it should not happen.
But it can happen depending on what files you got in the folder and what columns you shown.
When entering a folder MC will get icons and thumbnail for the files in the background.. also some extended column will be processed in the background.
Also AV software can be activate and scan files.. or some other program has a a file opened from that folder.

thank you for the detail explanation.
I tested in vmware, with fresh installed windows 10.
MC version is "MultiCommander_x64_Portable_(12.0.0.2903).zip"
it is not likely AV software or column locking the folder, because
it can delete c:\folder1 from the left panel when:
left panel is c:\
right panel is c:\folder1
it can not delete c:\folder1 from the left panel when:
left panel is c:\
right panel is c:\folder1\folder2
all the folder have no files, only empty sub-folders.

I cannot recreate that.
If I create C:\folder1\Folder2 on panel is shown folder2.. and one C:.. and I delete Folder1 from there.. No issue..panel 2 that show folder2 will go back out to c:\

Ahh You are sending to recylebin. That a big difference.. Then files are not deleted. but Windows moves them and redname them.. Not sure why Windows fails to send it to recycle bin.
