Public bug reported: When I try to move a file that's on the Desktop to another folder holding the shift after having clicked on it and started dragging it to the destination folder, the mouse pointer from an arrow becomes a hand and after this you are unable to click on other files or folders, even in Firefox you are unable to open another tab by clicking on the plus near the other tabs.
To reproduce the bug: Open Files. Click on a file on the Desktop. Start dragging it to another folder in Files and while dragging press the shift key. The mouse arrow becomes a hand. Try to click on another file, you won't be able to. Open Firefox and try to open another tab, you won't be able to.
