delete confirmation window default selection to "No"

Incidentally deleted files by pressing Del + Enter on the numpad because this two keys are very close together.
Was not able to recover.

Would be great if there was option to set delete dialog answer to "
No" by default to avoid this situation in the future.
Perhaps only set to "
No" if numpad's
Del button is pressed if that key can be detected vs regular del button.

Option to
disable only numpad's Del button entirely would also be great.

2 existing options (enabled by default) are more than enough:
- Confirm file delete
- Use Recycle bin

- Confirm file delete
That is the original problem finger misses numpad enter and and lands in between Del and Enter then this instantly delete selected files.
P.S. i have not been using recycle bin ever since i started with computers 20+ years ago.

Many people don't use recycle bin its a perfectly valid choice.
Only problem on keyboard with numpad where delete+enter are right next to each other.
I'll just disable the numpad delete key using VIA software.
