We have moved data to 1 physical disk, now users are used to drag and drop files from one folder to another.<br />
<br />
In the previous situation the folders were on 2 physical disks.<br />

Is it possible to set a setting or create a GPO to change that when users drag &amp;&nbsp;drop files, the files will be copied instead of being moved?<br />
