People who think SFC /SCANNOW fixes everything don't know anything about Windows.

What If I Follow Such a Tutorial And It Still Doesn't Work, How Is It Going In After That?

If this doesn't work it might be because one or both of the applications you're dragging from is in Administrator mode. UAC prevents programs in Administrator mode from drag and drop operations due to safety reasons (not sure what they are tbh.) So your choices are either run one or both programs outside of Admin mode, or disable UAC outright. In some cases, that's not viable, but that's what worked for me.

the restart always 'fixes' it momentarily. there's ZERO way to know if these solutions are legit.

Well I'll be... this worked. No way was I expecting that. Been messing with my "drag and drop" issues, on and off, for weeks now. I used your "sfc /scannow" suggestion, restarted, and my jaw hit the floor. Many, many thanks!

issues with drag and drop into web browser are resolved in the same manner? I'm having trouble, for example, in dragging a file (pdf or some such) into whatsapp or any other website upload page. I usually use Chrome, but found it happens also on IE and Edge.

Just as a disclaimer when typing in sfc /scannow you need to put a space before the slash

Hi thanks for the video. I'm thinking of trying this. Is there any chance that it could make things worse? I use to be able to drag images from my pc to phone but now, all that happens is, a green loading bar starts to fill then freezes. No message is displayed. I'm not sure why it's stopped working.
