I have windows configured so that I don't need to confirm deletions. So on Windows explorer, when I hit DEL, the selected file is moved to the recycle bin directly. Many applications respect this and do not ask for confirmation either (eg. Visual Studio). It seems that VS Code does not respect this setting and ask for confirmation. This is wrong behavior.

would be great if the confirmation prompt could be enabled/disabled by a user setting.

I wouldn't go that way, but maybe. VS Code seems to be very configurable anyway. But default behavior should be to use Windows settings.

I'd like to see a setting for this as well.

Introduced a new explorer.confirmDelete setting that allows to disable the confirmation dialog if the delete is using the trash.

This can also be set via the dialog by checking the "Do not ask me again" checkbox:
