Sorry, I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that if you drag a file from the remote to the local WinSCP panel, the file does not get downloaded? But instead it gets deleted from the remote directory?

It occurs when I select more than one file in te remote (in my case a Raspberry device) and drag and drop to my local directory, all those file are moving instead of copy, so they dissapear from my remote device.

Yes I'm dragging from my local panel. I have 5.17.15 version. I have never changed the default settings since the first versions I have used.

Do you mean "to" the local panel?

Can you show us your settings anyway?

Well the Transfer is in Default mode, I can't see anything more. I have been doing always the same procedure: select files in the remot(Raspberry Pi device) and drag and drop to the local ( my P.C.), I make this so automatically that I didn't realize that files where moved to the local since I was trying to run the files from my Raspberry and I discovered that home/pi folder was empty...all the files were moved away, and I didn't change any option, just update every time the program advice me about new updates, so I was thinking that can be a change in the updated version. Now I look carefully every time that I drag files to avoid a unexpected file disaparitions. So if I detect something wrong I can explain better when happen. Thanks for your help

The drag and drop is the first alternative selected : Determine drop target by dragging.....
Sorry, I start to think that is not a problem with the software , I work with my Raspberry device from my Tablet (Windows 10) through VNC, and just after some clicks of the mouse, it start to select erratically, even the screen keyboard start to show wrong characters in the screen , not the one it correspond, I need to go out from the vnc screen and make some clicks in another program to return to the normality, but after some clicks in VNC starts the erratic behavior, may be in one of this erratic mouse behavior I use WinSCP to copy some files and everything got wrong...
This behavior don't appear in a normal P.C.
