"Ghost" entry created when switching between "new file" and "new folder" in Explorer pane with compact folders enabled

Type: Bug

When attempting to switch between "New file" and "New folder" (as in first clicking new file then new folder or viceversa) with the "compact folders" option on, a "ghost" entry is created. This entry does not exist in the file system and disappears when refreshing the explorer pane.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new parent folder and add another folder as a child. This way, with "compact folders", it should look something like this: parent/child.
2. Select the parent folder and click on "New File"
3. Now switch to a folder by clicking "New Folder"
4. A new entry should be visible (which is the bug in question)

I will attach a video demonstrating the issue below.
