They are different views, much like My Documents which appears at the top of
the directory tree in the left pane in windows explorer and then appears
again when you expand drive C:/Documents and Settings/User etc.

Yes. Win9x/ME had a recycled folder that corresponded to the Recycle Bin.
Normally the folder is hidden. If you've changed your view in Folder
Options, then you will see the folder.
