I see. Thank you!

Thanks for the test.
I didn't fix it knowingly. But it's probably side effect of this fix (I've generalized the description now to cover even drag&drop):
Issue 2175 – The first copy&paste or drag&drop of remote files to other application might fail in Explorer interface

Hi Martin,

the issue does not appear anymore with the debug version.

I tested also:
WinSCP-6.0.beta-Portable.zip doesnt work
WinSCP-6.0.1.beta-Portable.zip doesnt work

WinSCP-6.0.2.RC-Portable.zip works
WinSCP-20230420d_dev_6.0.3_dcc411827-Portable.zip works

I assume you fixed it?

Thank you!
Dieter

Thanks. Can you send me an email, so I can send you back a debug version of WinSCP to track the problem? Please include a link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have sent the email. Thanks.

WinSCP-5.20.beta-Portable.zip works
WinSCP-5.20.1.beta-Portable.zip doesn't work

Thanks

Thanks. Can you test the 5.20 and 5.20.1?

I went through the list of version on https://sourceforge.net/projects/winscp/files/WinSCP/

It works with
WinSCP-5.19.6-Portable.zip

and doesn't work with
WinSCP-5.20.2.beta-Portable.zip
WinSCP-5.20.3.RC-Portable.zip
WinSCP-5.21-Portable.zip
WinSCP-5.21.7-Portable.zip
WinSCP-6.0.1.beta-Portable.zip

Let me know if you want me to test anything else.

Thanks

If you downgrade to WinSCP 5.21.7, does it start working on the first try again?

Latest Version 6.0.1 beta with default settings / Windows 11
When I try to drag&drop a file to the windows desktop a message pops up saying "WinSCP was not able to detect a folder, where the dragged file(s) was dropped ...."
I click the message away with "OK" and retry drag&drop the file to the windows desktop again and it then works.
In my opinion this should work on first try with default settings as it used to with some previous 5 version.

Thanks for WinSCP!
