When moving or copying files or folders by drag and drop, a dialog pops up where you can adjust some settings before starting the operation.

The appearance of that dialog can be controlled in <Core Settings> / <Filesystem> / <Drag and Drop file operations>.
The checkbox <Move - Show "Move To" window before starting> has no effect however.
The checkbox <Copy - Show "Copy To" window before starting> controls the appearance of the dialog for both operations - "copy" and "move". It's not possible to control it for move only.

It would be cool by the way, if one could turn off these dialogs in general, but be able to let them appear on occasion, maybe by pressing "Shift" or "Alt" while dragging the mouse and before dropping the items. Most of the times I'm satisfied with the way the file system operations work and then it's a bit annoying when I have to confirm them. But sometimes tweaks are necessary.
