When moving a file from OneDrive to SharePoint the file is also added to the recycle bin.. strange!?
Hi Henning Strand & jcgonzalezmartin,
I chatted with the feature owners and this is expected. We place a copy of the file into the recycle bin in case something happens during the move or the move was made by mistake. Hope that helps!

Ops, I'm able to reproduce this and to me this is totally unexpected unless the intention is to provide a kind of "Un do" StephenRice Stephen Rose can you drop some light here?

Hi Stephen,
We are starting to migrate from subsites to site collections and this is being noticed more and more.
Is it possible to have a notification that this is actually happening?
Users are starting to panic when they notice their files in the recycle bin and when you're moving a few hundred files, it takes a long time to double check everything is there.
