I often use the "Computer" node in the navigator panel to play tracks as it is the easiest access to my music - however, MusicBee has one major drawback IMHO when using this node. I will try to explain.

I will click on one of my folders and before I know it, this folder is inside of some other folder in the tree-view. It happens so fast, that sometimes I don't even know it happened. I can't "undo" using Windows Explorer either. I must admit that this sort of thing is enough to make me re-evaluate the use of the software. I think what is happening is there is a slight delay between the down-click and up-click events and somehow the folder that I click on is dragged after the "down-click" and dropped on the "up-click". Due to the node opening up in the tree-view - the folder is always dropped somewhere else. This has already happened 5 times.

Is there  a possibility to disallow "drag-and-drop" in the Navigator Panel? I only use this to navigate, not to do file opertaions.

Thanks...

here you go. I now default folder drag/drop off but if you want to turn it back on, right click/Manage Folders/Allow Folders to be Moved

I've got to hand it to you - your response time is nothing short of incredible. I thought it would take weeks to implement or maybe the next release - I had no idea you would be so quick. To request a feature or bug-fix and then have it resolved and pushed out in less than 24 hours is amazing for one person to achieve. Thank you so much Steven. To win me over from Foobar2000 says alot about your application. I'm impressed.

Awesome, I thought I was the only one with butter fingers, there's been a few times I've accidentally dragged a folder into another folder too :)
(way worse when using a tablet instead of a mouse)

Hey, I just now noticed all "move" operations in the Navigator Panel are listed in the ErrorLog.dat file (Help > Support > View Error Log). I was able to restore my directory structure for the moved folders. ;D
