This is reproducible here every time, select both files then delete both,
attempt to restore ReadMe by dragging from the ScrapDir to the iconbar icon
and the 'rename' to ReadMe1st occurs.
Delete ReadMe1st first, then delete ReadMe, ReadMe restores correctly
Delete ReadMe first, then delete ReadMe1st, ReadMe restores as ReadMe1st.
Restoring ReadMe1st first then allows ReadMe to subsequently be restored
correctly.

I hope the above helps. The next thing to do would be to preserve the
RestoreInfo file at the various stage but I have gone a bit cross-eyed ATM!!
