Apparent Memory Leak
Status: Beta

In Windows 7 when scanning a large directory tree of empty directories (I had over 22,000) the program works as expected until I tell RED (2.2.0.0) to delete folders. As it deletes folders its memory size (in RAM as reported by Task Manager) increases. For example, on the present run it has deleted 1000 folders but it showing a RAM use of 2 GB!

My machines exhibit this behaviour too, however the described conditions do NOT occur if the delete method is "Delete directly and don't ask any questions (Old RED mode)". I haven't tested the other modes but thought I should mention this as it may help with killing this annoying bug.
