Moving files out of Dropbox defaults to copy except inside Dropbox
When I move files out of Dropbox to another folder on my computer, they are only copied, but not moved. When I move files between Dropbox folders, they do move.
I am using Windows 10. This is a recent development, not sure if related to Windows update.

Microsoft changed the default behavior when dragging files from a root sync folder. The default is now Copy instead of Move. You can force a move by holding the Shift key when dragging a file or folder.
