Default Drag and drop delete

The recycle bin needs to be in the left hand column of Windows
Explorer so you can drag and drop to delete files. Right-click drag
and drop should delete without any confirmation. (option)

I really miss the old copy/paste/cut and delete icons.

Then why don't you drag it there?

That's how mine is by default. Where is yours?

Add them back with ClassicShell. Google it.

Why do you need icons? Just hit the Del key.

And if you don't like the confirming prompt, turn it off in Recycle
Bin Properties.
