Current Branch and Current Branch for Business…
To be honest, I am not to wrapped up in the semantics of the naming.
Really, if you called it SP/n/, 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…

Well, the new names for the CB and CBB servicing branches certainly
are telling. Can’t remember the exact names but CB is now “pilot”,
which should give consumers a warm fuzzy feeling J

I’ve noticed it’s more Windows 10 than older versions. I seriously
wonder whether this was done on purpose …

That’s the number #1 Windows 10 troubleshooting tip, re-image. Sad but
true

It does persist after a reboot, tried the escape key and resetting ie
zone settings to without any effect. 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.
Thanks,

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.

Actually, dragging to the desktop and apps appears to work, it seems
limited to just within Explorer. I can assert the box is up to date
with patches.

Hmmm. 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?

The usual Windows 10 reply…is it fully patched?

*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,
