How come drag and drop was disabled? :( Anyone know of a way to enable it?

:welcome: Welcome to Xtremesystems:up:
I'm unsure what you mean, you can drag and drop files, folders etc. And all you need to do to open a command prompt window is to select a folder and hold down the shift key while right clicking, and one of the new option in the selection window will say "open command prompt here".

Ah thx, shift right click works. But i can't type 'cd ' then drop a folder in the command window like i could in xp =\

no but that folder is the path for the file. so the file will go there correct?

Not sure which method you're talking about... If you're talking about shift + right click, yes, it does the same job. I just miss being able to drag and drop, that's all; it's nice to have that option

Actually i take it back, it's not the same. This command window is not the visual studio command line nor cygwin, so...

I'm still a little fuzzy on the drag and drop issue mine works perfectly. i use it all the time? the only files you can't move are when they are being accessed.
