    Edge Chromium - Drag and drop to collections?


    Small thing, maybe.. But is it just me or does it not work to drag and drop a link to Collections?

    It shows the little blue bar, indicating where the link will end up, but when I drop it there nothing happens. I'm hoping this is a bug that will get fixed, and not that drag and drop isn't intended. Right now any link I want to add has to be opened, and then I have to click Add current page. I'd love to drag and drop them instead.

    Am I doing something wrong or is this indeed not a feature?

  2. Cannot Drag and Drop into Edge

    • I have been on Win 10 and Edge since June 2016.
    • I was able to drag and drop files in a SP2013 document library until today.
    • I tried it with OneDrive with the same result. I can no longer drag and drop to upload files.

    Repeat: Drag and drop worked in my SharePoint 2013 libraries and OneDrive until today.

    Was there a recent Win 10 or Edge update that may have broken drag and drop?

    Cannot Drag and Drop into Edge

    Some of the copy-and-pasted responses across this website from Microsoft Support are an embarrassment. The lack of drag and drop has nothing to do with corrupted system files, and the resolution steps posted by the Support Engineer will waste customers'
    time sending them on a wild goose chase. For now, Microsoft Edge simply does not support drag and drop (!) - see
    here,

    here
    or
    here
    .

    Update: I've found a statement from Microsoft: "Fixes
    for this issue are being treated with top priority and are in development to ship in a future update. We'll provide updates on the timeline as we know more."

    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
