The Trash dirs in the root are the ones from XWP.

Beside the solutions for the command line, there exist a useful WPS
extension for deleting almost everything. The objects from the launch pad
are an exception, which require the OS/2 shredder object.

It removes the NODELETE=YES setting of files and objects and all file
attributes that can make the XWP trash refer a deletion. It's the "mshred"
object by Mark Kimes. I have it set to non-trashcan-mode, to make it do
real deletion beside the XWP trashcan. In that mode it's called "The Mangler".

It's still available on Harald's site:
