No Windows 10 drag and drop feature to email from task bar

One of the most convenient features of Windows 8.1 was the drag and drop feature directly from the task bar. For instance, I could right-click the Microsoft Word icon, or any office software, pinned to my task bar, and could select from any recent file.
I could then click on the file name and drag the file directly from the recent file list into my gmail. This was very convenient way to add an attachment because I didn't have to open the file explorer, then search for my file, then drag and drop it from the
saved location or folder.

Unfortunately I cannot do the same thing after I upgraded to Windows 10 software. Is there some way to troubleshoot this? Or will this not be a feature of this current version?

Any help would be great,

 

how to successfully pin files to the task bar

I use to be able to drag and drop files onto the task bar and they would reside withing the file list for that program. Since the recent upgrade it appears that I am not able to pin a file to the program on the task bar. Suggestions?

 

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
