Copying not working when I drag and drop to same drive

Post by Moonlight »

I refer to: Tools -> Configuration -> (Other) -> Shell Integration -> Drag and Drop:

When I choose as option for "Default action on drag and drop to same drive" "Copy" instead of "Move (Windows Standard)" nothing changes compared with "Move": After dragging and dropping file X from folder A to folder B, the file is no longer in folder A.

(When dragging and dropping to a different drive, copying works fine.)

(Tested with XYplorer version 28.00.0200, 64 bit, portable)
Windows 11 Home, version 26H2
Resolution 1920x1080p // Screen scaling percentage: 125%
XYplorer: at the moment testing always with the most recent 64-bit version (portable)
