Option to disable "Drag & Drop to Delete" for Inserts (Prevent Automation Loss)

Hi everyone,

I recently upgraded from Cubase 11 to Cubase 15, and while I appreciate the new features, there is one UI change that is absolutely killing my workflow and causing permanent data loss.

In the current versions, dragging a plugin and slightly missing the target slot causes the plugin to be deleted instantly. This is far too sensitive.

The main issue:

While I can use “Undo” (Alt+Z) to bring the plugin back, doing so triggers a warning that all automation data for this track will be deleted (for the whole fx chain!). This is a nightmare for complex projects.

Does anyone know a solution for this?
