The problem

Drag-and-drop: one click, one disaster

🖱️ Accidental moves

An unnoticed click in Explorer — and an entire folder with years of content silently moves to a different location. The search begins, stress sets in.

📁 Lost folder structure

Especially on network drives with many users it happens daily: folders get moved, nobody knows where. The structure falls apart.

⚡ Windows reacts immediately — without asking

Windows does not ask for confirmation on drag-and-drop within the same drive by default. The action is executed instantly — Undo only helps if you notice immediately.

The solution

Confirmation before the action starts

Folder Guard is the only tool on the market that intercepts before Windows executes the move. As soon as you drag a file or folder in Explorer, a confirmation dialog appears automatically.

Confirmation dialog before every move and copy operation
The action is only executed after your explicit consent
Works directly in Windows Explorer — no additional software needed
Runs on any Windows PC without network, domain or VPN
No configuration required — active immediately after installation

This feature does not exist in any other product on the market. Developed by MEYER EDV.

Use cases

Who is Folder Guard designed for?

Network drives with multiple users

Wherever multiple employees access shared drives, accidental moves happen most frequently. Folder Guard stops them before they cause damage.

Offices with established filing structures

Folder structures built up over years are at risk from a single drag-and-drop. Folder Guard preserves the established order.

Single PCs & home office

No network, no server, no Active Directory needed. Runs on every individual Windows PC without further infrastructure.
