Drag / move does not work Windows 7

I've upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista.  Now I can't drag and drop files in a folder.  I can arrange the icons on my desktop by drag and drop, but not files.  This is how Windows 7 works or is something wrong?  If so any ideas on a fix?

Microsoft has removed the option to disable the auto arrange in folders other then the desktop in Windows 7. It is still possible to drag and drop files from one folder to another.

Note: This is to change the registry - be careful!

  • Help! Drag / move does NOT work!

    Hello - I'm using a simple drag and drop quiz, but it does NOT work correctly .  When I play the movie, the mouse takes the movieclips but never falls, even when they are in a target area.  Help, please!  I have attached my FLA - any help would be much appreciated!

    Thank you.

    Just for starters, you change startDrag line to be: event.target.startDrag (false);

    Then see what's left more questions.  While I had other changes at different times, changing only one line was let down when I let go.

  • Drag / move does not work

    Windows Explorer - updated my computer with the latest updates of Windows XP on February 26 - since then the function drag / move on Windows Explorer (and my office) didn't work. I did a scan full antivirus and came out the own. Also checked the properties of the task bar and Start Menu and confirm the Drag and Drop check box is checked. No new hardware recently added with the exception of an APC battery backup. Suggestions for remedies?

  • Drag - move does not work on the first extension

    Hi all

    I'm a new user in Flex. And now, I am trying to create the first plugin.

    -the problem is that I use drag and drop to the desktop application event, works fine, when I debug it to first Extension, access the extension on the creation and the event does not properly.

    The error is Error #1034: Type coercion failed: cannot convert mx.events::DragEvent@7fff8465a19 in mx.events.DragEvent.

    The same two events and already worked in desktop application. Is this a bug or what Miss me?

    Thanks in advance

    Drag-n-drop works fine; See SDKPanel/src/ImportFilesDlg.mxml:handleFileDragStart ().

    I recommend starting a project Panel (based on SDKPanel), then pull in your office room by room application code.

  • Drag / move does not work in the export release version

    I use the built in the DragManager class to manage a few drag and drop features in an application.  When running in flex builder, it works exactly as expected, but when I export a release build project, dragging only works in the vertical direction.  How is that possible?  What could be the cause of this strange behavior.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    So I thought about it, it turns out that it was a combination of two questions.  First, the background color should be set in order to avoid that the events of gout are received correctly.  Not sure why it worked but since flash builder!

    Secondly it updated me that AIR drag Manager was not the mouseX property that we depend on to a logic of positioning, then had to update to store the required mouseX value.

  • Brush control with CTRL + ALT + click right + mouse/pen movement does not work with the tool liquify (photoshop cc 2015): what should I do?

    Brush control with CTRL + ALT + click right + mouse/pen movement does not work with the tool of liquefy; I can't change the size of the brush or hardness. OS win 7 Professional 64 bit, wacom tablet intuos 6.3.14 - 1 driver s pro, Photoshop 2015 CC worm.  2015.0.1 20150722.r.168

    What are your settings of GPU acceleration?  As I understand it, the Alt right click size and hardness adjust needs acceleration GPU to be turned on, but I have a feeling Brush hardness is always set to easy when using fluidity.  You can still see the quick mask as representation of the soft brush when Alt right click, but you can't change the hardness.

    Is that you can change the brush size and pressure (framed in red in my screenshot) Alt right click drag left and right changes size and down to pressure changes, and you can see what is happening in real-time by looking at the sign on the right.  It works independently of your acceleration GPU (IME) settings, but you don't get the effect of soft red quick mask.

    Does this fit with what you see, or you are not able to change things at all?  If not, then I've always found that fluidity consumes system resources, if you could check the Task Manager > Performance tab to see what kind of RAM and CPU use is using the fluidity.  That's what I see after direction the lens above with a big brush continuously for 10 seconds.  Note This is on a fairly quick NLE System.

  • My internal Webcam does not work (Windows 8 / PB Easynote) * help *.

    I have a TE Packard Bell's Easynote running on Windows 8. It has built in webcam (a generic unit named WeCam HD). But right out of the box, whenever I run an application that needs to use the webcam, it says "no device detected Webcam. If you are using a built-in camera please turn on"or other similar term. There is absolutely nothing in the user guide/documentation to explain how to do this.

    I went a little further and checked the Device Manager and there are the most recent drivers for this device all present and correct. And in some ways to make worse it, most of the time it doesn't work and it just worked last week. My son took a load of pictures of himself using the webcam internal to give me a new nice screen saver (red led light has been released top the camera was on and work) so I know that he has the opportunity to work. It's not fair. We tried to retrace his steps I guess all that I need is a key command to move the camera power switch (there is no way to access the device that I can find in windows 8). I tried fn & the keys function, Alt or Alt GR and the function keys, the windows key and all the keyboard shortcuts I know, but nothing seems to work. Please is - can someone help or give advice. It drives me crazy

    I think that I finally discovered it. Well, it seems to be correct.

    When you launch the video camera app or app camera for the first time as long as the laptop screen is far enough back the laptop recognizes the webcam and it turns on automatically,

    If you run the application with the screen in an 'L' (side view), then it does not work, it does not recognize the webcam. But if tilt you the screen a bit more far back it seems to work.

    Crazy. But maybe theres an internal sensor or something. Well now worked two times...

    unless it's just a loss connection internal as Douglas says. I'll just keep my fingers crossed that this new crazy method continues to work. If that's all, that's when I'll eat my hat. I've seriously been pulling my hair out over this. Looking at / installation of hardware drivers. Research and try millions of combinations of different keys. Trawling through information about Windows 8 & webcams. And it turns out that, if all goes well, it's just something simple like this...

    But thanks for your colleagues at the time. Appreciated.

  • HP 15 laptop: wifi does not work windows 8.1

    I have Windows installed pro 8.1. I was using wifi on this laptop, it worked fine. However, recently, I see that the Wifi does not work although he shows me the SSID of my network I used to use and also the SSID of the networks of neighbors. (It means that the wifi on laptop chip is capable of scanning the wifi signals and so it works). The same router from which all other Mobile tablets, my home laptop work are able to connect to the wifi network. Only on this laptop I am facing this problem. What may be a solution or what I should try. I tried the steps listed here http://www.fixedbyvonnie.com/2013/10/how-to-fix-limited-or-no-connectivity-wi-fi-issues-in-windows-8...

    Although I have not changed the default settings only steps above on blog, I tried to solve the problem. However, it did not work. Also keys function + F12 on laptop has no effect. The light on the F12 key is always on. However, it is possible to toggle the wifi in the bar of Windows 8.1 charms.

    What should I check?

    I bought an external USB wifi device that solved the problem.  The card wifi on laptop works well, but for some unknown reason, he is not able to connect to home wifi router. http://www.snapdeal.com/product/leoxsys-150-Mbps-Nano-WiFi/1179610?utm_source=earth_feed&utm_campaign=TopPerformersPLAScaling3000&utm_medium=CPC&utm_content=1179610&utm_term=, & campaignid = 350311165 & 28373951005 = adgroupid & adposition = 1o1 & network = g & device = c & targetid = pla-55251503741
