Recently upgraded to 11 and I am running into a problem that is effecting my work flow that I cannot find a resolution for no matter what I google (lemmy.zip)

A lot of my job is copying and pasting big batches of PDF files from one file window and sorting them into folders in another window. Before I upgraded to 11 when I would paste a batch it would keep all the things I just moved highlighted so I could easily grab them all again and move them somewhere else. Now with 11 when I go to grab that batch it only selects the one file I clicked and dragged on directly while it automatically deselects all the other ones.

Please tell me there is a secret answer to this because it has slowed down my work flow significantly and I cannot use Linux or stay on 10 as we are required to move to 11 in order for data safety compliance blah blah blah

Please tell me I am just blind or searching the wrong things up looking for my solution.

Yes. Can be much faster than clicking/selecting, but more importantly they can be scripted so it's easy to repeat an action

The action isn't the same every time. It's ok I just downloaded one commander. Hopefully it works for me.
