Haven't seen this but if it doesn't follow through a restart, try tapping the esc key and see if it fixes it, as that is the common workaround for several weird windows interface bugs like this when they crop up. If not, it sort of sounds like it could be an IE zone settings issue as well, so you might check there and see if anyone has been changing settings.

I can assert the box is up to date with patches.

Just wondering because I was battling against an issue with Edge crashing and I thought the machine was fully patched, but then all of a sudden a new update landed and hey presto! Issue resolved. Does it manifest just within Explorer windows or also when you try to drag anything to the desktop or even to another application?

Casale Sent: 31 May 2017 18:51 To: '[email protected]' <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [NTSysADM] Windows 10 Explorer drag and drop issue I have a Windows 10 1607 wkst that can drag and drop objects only within a folder, that is a file can be dropped into a directory in the same directory as the file. If you drag an object outside of its own directory regardless of local or network drives, the icon gets a red circle with a cross. It's not permissions, you can copy and paste via keyboard or mouse, you just can't drag. Anyone come across this before? Thanks, jlc
