moving folders confirmation

more options

I often face the problem that, while dragging/rearranging folders, I accidentally move a folder into another one. There is no confirm dialog, but the filter warning dialog opens and notifies me that filters are being updated.

Is there a way to abort the moving process at this stage? There is no cancel/abort button in the filter notification.

There was an add-on for this in older versions, but now there is only an add-on that disables folder drag and drop, except when Shift is pressed during the process.

Yep, that's sufficient, thank you! (Although Shift workaround does not work, the documentation says I have to disable the Add-on temporarily, which is ok for my case).

I tested the operation and it does allow drag and drop when Shift is held, but that feature is turned off by default in the add-on's options.
