-	When drag&drop shell extension is not installed -- e.g. when using [[portable\|portable executables]] or when [[microsoft_store\|installed from Microsoft Store]]((Or on Windows 10 version 1803 -- but not later versions -- where the drag&drop shell extension is broken.)) &recent (remove comment on 1803 once it is out of use ) -- this method does not allow dropping files to unmapped network drives.((Neither to floppy drives, if anyone is still using them.)) In this case, you can enable dropping files by specifying paths to selected network drives in the //Allow dropping files to these network drives// box.	+	When drag&drop shell extension is not installed -- e.g. when using [[portable\|portable executables]] or when [[microsoft_store\|installed from Microsoft Store]] -- this method does not allow dropping files to unmapped network drives. In this case, you can enable dropping files by specifying UNC paths to selected network drives in the //==Allow== dropping files to these network drives// box. Enter each path on separate line.

	When you have problems with starting file dragging because WinSCP hangs, when trying to start monitoring a particular drive (typically a mapped network drive), you can ==exclude== it from monitoring. Add ''-X'' line to the //Allow dropping files to these network drives// box. That is a dash/minus sign, followed by the drive letter.
