Recycle Bin as Favorite Toolbar shortcut bug and white space issue

I am trying to have two icons for my Windows 7 X64 Recycle Bin on one Favorite Toolbar. The first one is suppose to open the Recycle Bin as a Tab in the Left Panel, while the second in the Right Panel. And here is what is happening


First of all:
I cannot name them both >>Recycle Bin<<. I mean I can. But then, my Parameters in them get changed from

Code: Select all

-T -C -L
and

Code: Select all

-T -C -R
to

Code: Select all

-T -C -L
or

Code: Select all

-T -C -R
That I can even understand. But why when I rename one >>Recycle Bin<< to >>Recycle Bin << [add a white space at the end of it] it always gets reverted to "Recycle Bin"; thus wiping out the duality and yet again forcing the same Parameter on both icon- and if that is not a bug then at this is at least an user unfriendly behavior [because the software is renaming what the user have wrote without even informing the user about it, not mentioning that user's consent for such action]



Secondly:
Even if I rename one of the >>Recycle Bin<< icons into something like >>Recycle Bin .<< [add a space and dot to the name], which gets them saved and remembered as two distinctive ones, the Parameters do not work. FreeCommander just opens both of them in the currently active Panel- despite the >> -L<< or >> -R<< designation. And that is simply a bug



All of this has been happening before and is happening in the FreeCommander XE 2018 Build 770 32-bit public version

It works fine in the release 773:

- open on the left site
Program or folder: .....\FreeCommander.exe
Parameter: -L=::{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} -C -T

- open on the right site
Program or folder: .....\FreeCommander.exe
Parameter: -R=::{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} -C -T

Yes, thank you. Your solution works

Up until this time I had set as >>Program or Folder<< that >>::{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}<< thing. But adding it to a Parameter and writing in its place a path to FC's EXE did the trick



Unfortunately now those two shortcuts use the icon of FC. I can of course change it- but then I would have to choose either my icon for Recycle Bin being empty or for it being full; which up until now was done automatically, according to situation

I tried putting the >>::{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}<< as a path to icon, but it did not do the trick
