# How do I stop a two-finger tap from deleting scraps in the curtain?

In Settings → **Junk Yard**, under Edge curtain, switch off **Two-finger tap deletes a scrap**. Tiles then can only be removed with their hover trash button or from the board.

It's worth doing if you often right-click by accident on a trackpad, because a deleted scrap can't be brought back. Pinned scraps are protected from this gesture either way.
