Same. Another overblown report.

According to Microsoft, users who have installed the KB5095051 update might encounter a strange Recycle Bin bug that replaces the names of deleted files with internal Recycle Bin filenames in specific situations. When permanently deleting a single file from the Recycle Bin, the confirmation dialog displays a cryptic internal filename, such as $Rxxxxx.ext, instead of the original filename, such as realfilename.txt.

Ahh yes, Microsoft lying about how bad Microsoft are again. \s

The horrors!

Users might experience the wrong name showing in the recycle confirmation dialogue? As far as issues go, that seems relatively minor. Especially if it only impacts some users. So yea, the title seems pretty sensationalised
