Disable automatic copying of selected files

Hello,

While I'm selecting multiple files (Ctrl + left-clicking), Windows automatically makes a copy of the files once or multiple times.
I feel like this happens when the mouse moves.

Do you know if there's a way to disable this?

Thank you.

    Thank you for your response, but that is not the solution.
    I found out why this happens more precisely; if you move selected items within the same folder, they are automatically copied.

    This is a Windows feature, it's just that when you have a lot of files and you are sorting, if you go too fast, this happens very frequently.

    I would like to be able to disable this feature.

    Hi,
    it's not a Windows 10 problem > change the keyboard and/or the mouse

    OK but I confirm > more precisely, if you press the left mouse button down and keep the CTRL key pressed and one of the two malfunctions, you produce EXACTLY "a drag-and-drop" with copy (even under XP, Vista, 7 or 8) corrected at 6:08 PM

    Never heard of a Win10 configuration for that...

    Bye
