I've searched for an answer to this for quite some time, and mostly just
choose to ignore it.

In Explorer, when right clicking and dragging to a destination folder, is
there a way to keep the destination folder highlighted when you release the
button and then make your selection from the menu? (Move, copy, etc.)

With 98se, the destination stays highlighted when you release the mouse,
which gives you the option to cancel if you've missed the folder you
wanted.

TIA,
John

I don't know about the highlighting, but one of the options in the
right-click context menu is "Cancel", so you can just choose that if
you've made a mistake.
