STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Drag a file onto a directory
2. When dropping, notice the context menu

OBSERVED RESULT
The shortcuts only show the modifier keys (Shift, Ctrl)

That's intentional. It's telling you that next time, if you Shift+drag, it will move without asking, if you Ctrl+Drag, it will copy without asking, and so on.
Comment 2 Dan Dascalescu 2021-05-06 20:08:24 UTC
I see. What if the popup said,

Move: Shift + drag
Copy: Ctrl + drag
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2021-05-06 21:04:54 UTC
Yeah, that's possible.
