    Windows 10 - Drag & Drop File into a Zip File Not Working - July 2019


    Hi,


    On my Windows 10 machine under File Explorer I can no longer drag and drop a file into a pre-created zip file. Usually I can just drag a file and over a zip file just drop it, but it wont even highlight the zip file.


    Any ideas why?

    Combining 1000s of PDF files with drag and drop

    OK I need to know how many files I have. The problem is that there is more than one file per PDF.

    Is there a was to combine all of them into one PDF drag and drop stile by the 100s?
