    Idk when it started but I cannot drag and drop files, copy and paste them anywhere or transfer them at all. Has anyone experienced this before and if so how did you fix it?

  2. Drag and Drop

    Hi Charles,

    the steps you suggested didn't work for me but, when pressing the escape key it somehow expanded the drive and by using drag and drop to the single file in the list worked.

    In the past I could drag and drop multiple folders onto the drive on the network computer(s). Doing it on individual folders will take far too long and time consuming and is not an option.

    Microsoft should be able to identify what is blocking it and issue a fix.

    My machine is multi boot so tomorrow I will try with Windows 7.

    Many thanks for your help,

    Deric

  3. How to change the drag & drop default bit rate to transfer audio files?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community and sorry for the delayed response.

    In order to assist you better could you please confirm a couple of things:

    • While dragging and dropping do you get an option to change the bit transfer rate?
    • If yes, have you tried changing the bit rate?
    If you get an option I suggest you to try changing the bit rate manually while dragging and dropping and check if this helps. Also please be informed that its by default your files are being transferred with the bit rate 160 kbps. So you may leave a feedback
    by using the Windows feedback App.

    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.
