Find the actual file in the directory, right click on it and select "delete". A confirmation question may appear, click on yes, and it's gone. Actually, it isn't really gone, rather it goes into the "recycle folder" and sits there until it is blasted away by you later on.

left click once, hit the delete key

To find missing file you must go to System Restore in a windows computer (I think its only windows) and select a date to a file that's been deleted. To reach the file the fastest was go to search and SYstem Restore

The recycling icon, if they are not there, they have been purged so unless they have been stored on the internet as well they are gone forever.

Not necessarily. If you did delete them and empty the recycle bin you can recover them by using a Data/File recovery program. You can download a free one off of the internet. I highly recommend Recuva.
