As with Windows Explorer hold Shift or Ctrl key to toggle between copy / move during drag and drop.

For drag and drop you can in setting disable the the options and filter dialog when during copy/move.
For hotkey or clicking copy/move button the dialog will always be shown.. (just press return key to confirm default options..)

The whole issue is to avoid the hotkey ....i just want to press a single key and all the moving goes without anymore interaction....I have literally thousands of folders/files....if i hold the hotkey and press move and then press Ok and then whatever pops up....then ....

It cannot be disabled since you specify filter and other common copy/move settings there.
But you can also script it and create your own copy/move command.

Do you have an example?

UserDefinedCommand of Custom Command type
like
"MC.Explorer.Copy NODIALOG " then assign that to hotkey/button/menu/alias or other.

Someone else did that
