Well, then that's an awful non-intuitive feature, reducing productivity and annoying me many times per day. > I recall seeing a comment about this in release notes, and it made sense.

Why *must* it be copied that way? When I drag the file to another location, I clearly say: *I want to work with that file at this place.* I don't need any software that tries to think for me or protect me from doing what I want. At least, this super annoying feature should be an option, like: *Keep read-only flag to reduce my productivity* > To get a copy to work on, just click on the handy “download” button right > next to the filename instead, which will make an editable copy. Unfortunately, that *download button* doesn't know where I want to put that file. So it goes to the download folder, and I need to pick it from there, move it around, etc. That's violating the only relevant KPI in any application: *number of clicks to result* Benny, please revert this ASAP or make it optional. This has the potential to move away from MM because this is really driving me nuts. Viele Grüsse. Robert
