Its 10.10 but still no easy way to restore files in trash?

[resting]

Although I seldom had to restore files from trash bin, it feels dumb when I had to drag it back to where I deleted it from.

Is there no easy way to restore right from the bin?

How 'bout right click and select "put back"?

That explains the part where the OP says "it feels dumb"

i no see "put back"?

LOL. After some searching, someone suggested it was due to Path Finder (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2414834?tstart=0).
I tried and it was!

Damn lived without "put back" for so long. Anyway, seldom use it anyway. But good to know its Path Finder's fault!

Click on the small wheel icon as seen in your picture. You will see the 'put back' option.

It was being a little buggy for me and not showing up sometimes. That said Put Back (or cmd + delete) is the way to do it. Try restarting or adding another file to the trash.
