"confirm file delete" doesn't at all
I'm using recycle bin

[xnview]

the settings of windows recycle bin is confirm too?

[obelisk]

No windows isn't.
Shouldn't rely on windows recycle bin confirm

No windows isn't.
Shouldn't rely on windows recycle bin confirm

i use the API of windows, so this setting (it's a change in windows since 7)

No, you shouldn't use API for windows.

To use API for windows the option name should be "use recycle bin options" - but no software does this.

"confirm file delete" suggests it's a local option.

i use windows API to be able to use 'recycle bin'

This is what non-programmers expect:


"use recycle bin" on => use windows API, "confirm file delete" option disabled (It's irrelevant)


"use recycle bin" off => use File.Delete (recursively), "confirm file delete" option enabled
"confirm file delete" on => MessageBox.Show Y/N
