Change Default Drag and Drop Action in Windows contains four registry files to set the default action when you drag and drop a file or folder.

Because each Action requires two changes in the registry, we've created the registry files for you. As always, back up your registry.

Our tutorial explains how you can make a choice every time with the mouse and keyboard without modifying the registry.

Download Change Default Drag and Drop Action in Windows and extract the four files.
