Hi, as stated in the subject, whenever I try to drag an attachment from Outlook (New) I get an error msg stating "Nothing to drop.", then I have to use the normal explorer for this task.
I don't remember this being an issue before, but perhaps that was when I was using the Classic Outlook.
Anyone came across this issue? Any suggestion on how to resolve it?

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".

Forum users who have their Windows version and screen scaling percentage in the location field of their profile will get priority support. And be sure to state your XY version number in the body of your post. No info in the location field? Be patient and Don will get to you after he takes care of those who have the proper info in the proper place.

AFAIK nothing has changed here in XYplorer in a long time. So I assume it's connected to the switch from classic to new Outlook. Can anybody who has the new Outlook confirm this issue?

Not much feedback. Can't do anything at the moment. No new Outlook here.
