Of course, the tasks performed simultaneously process different files. They are located in different folders, but the task performed through the context menu of File Explorer is the same. The task consists of converting images to PDF with recognition.

Upd. PDF-XChange Pro 10.6.0.396 — source files may or may not be deleted after successfully saving the results of the work. I have not noticed any patterns. Both successful deletion and non-deletion occur when

1. converting images from PNG, TIFF and JPG to PDF;
2. single files or dozens;
3. whether other PDF-Tools actions are performed simultaneously, or this is the only PDF-Tools process;
4. regardless of whether the launch occurs through the PDF-Tools interface or through the File Explorer context menu.
