Yes you can delete from the File Manager BUT the files will NOT go to the Recycle Bin.
They are permanently and irretrievably deleted.
Yoa can use File Manager nearly the same as Explorer with a few subtle differences.
eg if you move or copy files in File Manager they will have short name format, and then will appear in Explorer only with short name.

NO , unless you don't want them anymore . They are just a mirror of Explorer .
Use Add/Remove in Control Panel on anything you want to remove .
