The Photos app is included in Windows 10 by default. You can use the Photos app to view and edit your photos and videos, make movies, and create albums. You can use video remix to instantly create a video from photos and videos you select. Use the video editor for fine-tuned adjustments — change filters, text, camera motion, music, and more. You can even add 3D effects like butterflies, lasers, or explosions that magically appear in your video.
Windows shows a confirmation dialog box when you try to delete a file permanently. Here's how you can enable or disable it when needed.
To delete a file in Windows, all you have to do is press the delete key. When you do that, Windows will instantly delete the file and moves it to the Recycle Bin. If you want to permanently delete a file or folder you have to press Shift + Delete keys. This skips the moving to the Recycle Bin part and deletes the file or folder irrecoverably. Since the file is being deleted permanently, Windows shows a confirmation dialog box just to be sure.
Every time you delete a file, Windows asks you “Are you sure you want to move this file to the Recycle Bin?” This is typically a good thing, to prevent you from deleting files by accident, but if you are trying to do some cleanup and need to delete a lot of files, you might not want to be prompted every single time.
There’s a simple way to turn it off, thankfully, although I’d recommend you leave it on the majority of the time.
When you delete a file from within the Photos app, you will see a delete confirmation dialog by default before the file and all exact duplicates are moved to the Recycle Bin in Windows 10.
