Prompt to confirm folder move on drag/drop

by jwolfer . Updated 13 years, 1 month ago

Greetings all…

Been scouring the net all day trying to find a fix/hack for this.

We have many users who perform an accidental drag/drop on a folder rather than a solid double click to view the contents of the folder.

We find that folders will go missing, only to find it has been moved to a nearby folder by mistake.

I would like to know if there is a way to force a yes/no (or whatever) prompt to appear when a user drags and drops a folder using left click.

Permissions are not an option.. as they may very well need to move it, and if they are deliberate about it, it is fine. It is the accidental moves that are driving me nuts!

Thanks for your help in advance!
