And our memory of 7 and XP is of how it was most recently. A mature OS with most of the bugs killed. They had just as many bugs when they first came out.

To be honest, I am not to wrapped up in the semantics of the naming. Really, if you called it SPn, would it sound more appealing? Either way, the claim and expectation is a reasonable amount of testing was done and I think it would be naïve to assume not. I think the real problem might manifest in the complexity of the OS. Compared to XP which ran smooth from my experience, I am not surprised there are more bugs given the sheer order magnitudes more features. Simple matter of reality based on x bugs per y lines of code...

Can't remember the exact names but CB is now "pilot", which should give consumers a warm fuzzy feeling :) From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Katherine M.

I also logged on a new user and the issue remains. Seems something system wide is broken on this desktop, I'll just re-image when convenient.

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
