  1. Drag multi-tasking not working properly?


    Every time I try to drag a window into the right side of the screen it doesn't merge like it's supposed to. You know how it's supposed to create a clear box to outline the right side of the screen beforehand? It doesn't do that most of the time. But when I do it with the top, bottom, or left side of the screen it works fine. Anyways sometimes the window even gets stuck and I have to press windows key + any arrow button to get it to show up again. Sometimes the font of that particular window increases dramatically for no reason. Anyone else have this issue? I tried using System File Checker tool to fix any corrupt Windows files (which it said it did) but nothing changed. Not the end of the world but I need to multitask a lot so it's very annoying.

  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
