    After a crash the other day, upon restart I noticed that whenever I drag and drop a file, the text and icons are abnormally large. I've tried changing resolution and restarting to no avail. I've attached some screenshots of the issue. Any help is appreciated.

    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

    Drag and Drop Desktop Icons

    Hi majestic100

    I am a bit unclear on your Question, are you trying to move icons around your Desktop, or drag and drop files on your PC?

    If you are just trying to move Desktop icons, right click your Desktop, choose View - untick Auto Arrange icons

    If you are trying to drag and drop files, what folder are you dragging from and what folder are you dropping into?

    Huge Icons and Text While Dragging and Dropping

    drag & drop icon

    in Windows 10, can I turn the drag & drop icon off, it is too big and makes it difficult to see where I'm dropping the file (the font/icon size is already at the smallest setting) It's already caused several 'misdrops'
