Hey!
So up until recently, when I was using Word I could drag an image from a background XYplorer instance without XYplorer stealing Word's focus, and XYplorer would stay in the background the entire time letting me focus on what I do in Word.
However, now when I try to drag an image from a background XYplorer instance to a foreground Word instance it will automatically focus XYplorer thus stealing Word's focus and not being able to see where I drop the image without ALT+TABing back to Word.

Please include the following information:
1) Your XYplorer Version (e.g., v28.00.0801)
2) Your Windows Version (e.g., Win 11)
3) Your Screen Scaling Percentage (e.g., 125%).
We strongly recommend adding your Windows Version and Screen Scaling Percentage to the Location field in your Profile or to your Signature. That way, you only have to type them once, and we won't have to search for that vital information.
When attaching an Image, please use the Attachment tab at the bottom of your post and click "Add files".

That's the problem: it is already checked but it just stopped working in the latest versions
