| 699231 | 2008-08-22 01:29:00 | Hi I am running Windows Vista Business 32bit on a laptop. I take a lot of photos, therefore I do a lot of moving and sorting of photographs into folders. I am grabbing multiple photos regularly and have got quite fast at doing it. I have noticed if you try and highlight multiple photos by holding ctrl and clicking the mouse button on each photo too quickly Windows has an annoying habit of automatically copying them. How do you turn that off? Thanks |

How do you turn that off? Thanks I think its because you are doing it too quickly. Meaning you are clicking a picture, holding down ctrl and clicking the next picture and you end up dragging the mouse while holding it down for just a split second. When holding ctrl + dragging a file it copies those files selected. I tend to do it a lot as well. |

| 699234 | 2008-08-24 02:39:00 | Hey thanks guys. I think you're right Jams. It happens in Windows "pictures" when I am organising them into folders within "pictures". I was hoping there was a way of turning it off like you can change mouse clicks within certain Windows applications. I will have to take more care. Thanks Snafu, I will have a look at Adobe Lightroom. | altezzars200 (14065) | ||
