To delete them, right click the icon and select delete from the pop-up menu. Note that you will (or should) have two recycle bins to empty, your original and the NPRB version.

Check the latter frequently (at least once a week) as files automatically deleted by Windows end up there too and it fills up pretty darned quick.
