Windows 10: I keep accidentally moving folders when I lose mouse control. HELP!

I keep accidentally moving folders when I lose mouse control. HELP! CTL Z only works if you were focused on your error, but sometimes I don't get what just happened until too late. How can make this NEVER be an option?I a grad student who gets really tired and this type of stuff ruins my night.... I am SOOO frustrated. I am working on a laptop with a mouse pad. I need a protection about this type of arbitrary functionality that sets me back sometime over an hour.

I accidentally move the Documents folder to Downloads folder on Windows 10

I accidentally move the Documents folder to Downloads folder, but I cannot have permission to move the folder back to user folder

 

Moving entire folders

You can't move a system folder. Moving the contents is easy.

• Create a sub-folder in the directory you want.
• Open the original folder.
• Ctrl+A will highlight all the contents of that folder.
  
• Right click on it and drag to the destination folder in the left pane.
  
• Release the mouse key and left click Copy Here.
• If the move was successful, delete the contents in the original folder.

mouse is not working right


unfortunately there isn't a lot to a usb mouse. what i would suggest is checking the power management settings on it.

Right-click the start menu and choose device manager
Expand Universal Serial Bus Controllers at the very bottom
Double-click on each HUB you have listed, click Power Management Tab at the top, and UNCHECK "Allow this computer to turn off this device to save power"
You may have HUBs called Generic and Root Hub. Perform the step above on All of them.

If you continue to have the issue, i would imagine your mouse is malfunctioning. Perhaps try another mouse just to be sure. This will help you determine if it is in fact the mouse of computer causing the issue.

Good Luck!!
