i also used this reg change and now my drag and drop copies a shortcut instead of the actual file
is there a way to undo this?

Thank you Jesus.
I was ready to start smashing things, after having changed every conceivable IE setting and local security policy to get rid of that stupid popup every time I copied a file from a Windows server.

Thank you kindly for this. It’s the only thing that removed IE’s annoying prompt. Like Jade, I can only drag shortcuts (of images that are hyperlinked), but it works just peachy on images that aren’t linked.

This worked well for me. That warning was driving me nuts. Thanks!

When you run this .reg it changes IE to only copy a shortcut from the web. I can’t drag images anymore.

t ever enter select mode by accident. I’m sure it’ll happen eventually… and maybe video recording, to boot. Related Content: Sincerely Jeffrey Tome Is the iPhone a Good PDA? The Virtual Clipboard Inside your ComputerRemove the IE Drag & Drop PromptYour Name In Lights
