Drag & Drop stopped working when dragging from Windows Explorer to the server window
Running Windows 10 and WinSCP v5.19.6.
For about a couple of months now (one of the recent updates) Drag & Drop has stopped working properly. To clarify, from the following 4 scenarios, only 1 of those 3 has stopped working:
1) Dragging a file from a Windows Explorer window to the remote window (server). BROKEN.
2) Dragging a file from WinSCP's local window to the remote window. WORKS.
3) Dragging a file from WinSCP's remote window to the local window. WORKS.
4) Dragging a file from WinSCP's remote window to a File Explorer window. WORKS.
Further details on the broken scenario:
In scenario 1 the file does get moved to the remote directory where it was dropped but the remote directory then just blanks out (i.e. there's all of a sudden no folders or files visible). This glitch also blanks out all other currently open remote directories. The only solution that I've found once this happens is to close and re-open WinSCP.
Scenario 1 used to work prior to one of the recent updates that broke it sometime this year.
As a workaround in the meantime, I've been using scenario 2 to move files between local and remote sessions but every now and then I forget and end up doing scenario 1... the annoying part about that is I have to close and re-open all my previously opened files from the remote session after closing and re-opening WinSCP which makes me lose valuable time and progress.
