Give us a way to TURN OFF the stupid "linking" that is now in library files.

Give us a way to disable the stupid new "feature" of "linked" files from libraries. 

After the latest "update" to photoshop, whenever I drag an item from the library to a document I'm working on a popup comes up saying it is now a "linked" file and if I want to place it as a copy, I have to hold the ALT key down while dragging it from the library. 

 

What I need to know is how do I turn this stupidity off? I'm extremely aggravated that I now have to go to the extra step of remembering to hold the ALT key down while dragging something from the library. This is stupid, just turn the crap OFF and never have to do it again.

This is the dialog box that pops up. It never came up before this latest update. I'm not sure if it was becasue of the lastest update to photoshop or to the latest update to the CC App. I updated both at the same time so it could be either one of them.

 

This is a change and I need to know how to reverse it. And Holding the ALT key down every frigging time is NOT an option... And right clicking on it in the library panel and choosing "place layers" is NOT an option either. I need to know how to turn this absolute stupidity off PERMENANTLY and never have to mess with it again. 

 

I have looked at every option in the preferences and there is nothing to turn this junk off in there.
