Hi, before Big Sur, I can use one finger to press on the trackpad and hold a file, while I use another four fingers to swipe between spaces to move the file around. After Big Sur update, I can't do that. Anyone having this issue as well?
Found it. You have to go to system pref>accessibility>pointer control>mouse & trackpad>trackpad options>check enable dragging and the you have a choice of option that replaced the click and drag it became tap twice + hold and drag and let go or use 3 fingers, tap (not click) hold and slide... https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/unac899/mac
Same problem here.

Thanks for the info....fixed now.
Testing it out now! So far so good.
Yes! I use it every day also and am constantly force relaunching as well! I was hoping the 11.2 update would fix this but the problem persists after I upgraded last week..
So! This does work, I haven't had problems yet. Although, I do also use the Three Finger drag, so it is currently conflicting with that setting
None of the suggested work-arounds actually worked. sorry ;(
not being able to just click and swipe over to the other desktop.
I can, but it’s the other way around.
^^ That!!!!!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you, Canadian Chad! Your temporary fix is working!
Thank you, this is better then the solution I had.
me too!
Oh god thanks for this, I was going mad. Now that I think of it, it was probably like that before. Why they don't include it in the regular trackpad settings, that is beyond me !
Same thing here. MacBookPro M1 delivered mid-March 2021, so 3 months after some of these reports !!!
@APPLE: can you tell us when this will be fixed ??? Sooo anoying
What OS are you using. Which model computer do you have?
BRAVO !!!
Worked for me. There should be a way to pin a usefull post like yours on page 1.
