I want to drag and drop items on my desktop (I have a 2017 MacBook). I never used to have an issue, but now when I try to organize my desktop and place items into a folder, a preview just opens up automatically. How do I just drag and drop items on my desktop into a folder already on my desktop without opening up a preview?
MacBook, macOS 11.3
Open System Preferences> Accessibility> Mouse & Trackpad
Go to Spring loading delay , check the box and use the slider to
move from Short to Long to find you favoured time delay when
folders open.
The longer the delay will allow you to drop file into a folder on the Desktop
without the folder opening too quickly.

Basically the same process for Drag and Drop a files from Desktop to mounted External Drive. Just Drag and drop onto the already existing Folder.
This posting is in High Sierra but profile is showing Big Sur 11.3. Has the computer been updated to current version Big Sur 11.5.2 ?
Good points by previous posting.
