Files are selected when using Drag&Drop

 Sorry,I typed the wrong option. You should check “Configuration - Explorer Panel Settings - Display - Selection and Checking of items - Unselect other files and folders when single selecting”
 I tested dragging some files one by one from MC to Window Explorer (Win10x64) and it works for me.

And now it is impossible to select multiple files. What magmalive (and me too) would like to see is clearing selection after drag'n'drop.

Exactly  :)

Once checked, Can‘t mark multiple files by spacebar. But you can use ctrl and shift with spacebar to select multiple files.
Personally, I'm used to using the right mouse button to multiselect.

I appreciate your help.

But now i have to press a key combination instead of a simple <INSERT>.
I'm using <INSERT> since 30 years in file commanders, never used the mouse for selection,
only for actions which you couldn't do with the keyboard, like Drag&Drop to external programs.

And it is not logical for me to let the file(s) selected after dragging. When you select file(s) you want
to do an action with them, like copy. After copying the files you expect them to not be selected anymore.
(I know that some tools have an option to let files selected after some actions. Useful, but only when you want
do multiple actions with the selected files.)

The same goes with Drag&Drop, if i select file(s) to do the "action" Drag&Drop, i expect them to be unselected,
because the "action" is done after draggin them.
