File copy/moving question Windows 11

[Old Crank]

Back in the good old days of Windows Pi (3.16) in File manager you could easily move a batch of files around in the File manager application. This has continued, for me, through Windows 10.
In a folder you could pick a file, then hold the Shift or ctrl key and select a batch of files to move or delete.

I have noticed in the last couple of weeks that I can't do this in the filefolder application for Win 11.
I can pick individual files and I can pick more files but only one at a time.
This is really annoying since I am deleting 6 months of pictures from my phones chip after I move them to my external harddrive.

There does seem to be an answer that I stubbled on.
In the application with the list of picture files I can Right click on a file. Then I can drag the highlighted area down and highlight more files. Then delete, or move.

Is this the new solution? Why do what used to be standard windows keystrokes work in other programs but not in windows.k

Anyone have a clue?
