    Drag and Drop in Windows 10

    Hi James,

    We would like to check if you have already got your machine back and if the issue still persists after having it repaired?

    We look forward to your reply.

    Drag and Drop in Windows 10

    Why problems after using the Media Creation Tool, sfc /scannow and DISM windows 10 issues remain, presented solution was to send unit in for repair, should not have been sold with issues, By the way about 3 weeks without machine and not what I paid for.

    Always cut and paste. Why would you want to hold a mouse button down anyway? You will be better off in 30 years with this technique. Also you wont "accidentally" drop something in the folder tree and not know where it fell.

    Just tried it out and you sort of can but it's a copy paste and not a cut and paste.

    Well that's what it did for me at least.

    Does it leave the file still on the desktop?
