Drag & drop of links/images from Firefox 3

Post by antp »

Hi,
I did not find references to this in other topics, maybe I am the only one to use that or maybe I am the only one to have this problem:
Since I moved to Windows Vista, I cannot anymore drag & drop links from Firefox 3 address bar (the icon on the left of the url) to Salamander folder to make shortcuts. This works fine with Firefox 3 under XP and with IE under Vista, both to Salamander. This also works with Firefox 3 to Windows file explorer. So I guess it is a problem between the three, Salamander Firefox Vista. This is not new, I already had the problem with Salamander 2.51, but I never took time to report it as at that time I had Vista only at work (now that I have it at home, it bothers me more :D)
In a similar way, I used to drag & drop pictures from a web page to a folder to save them, but that does not work anymore either.

I confirm the bug on my virtual Vista 32bit. When Salamander is running on same or lower integrity level it shows move available draging cursor (for images) or shortcut creation draging cursor (for links/urls), but when the mouse button is realeased to finish the drag operation, nothing happens; no error is displayed. :(

Vista Business SP1 32bit
Salamander 2.52 beta 1

I didn't think about that, but on my PCs UAC is disabled so all is run at admin level I guess.

Same version of Firefox & Salamander as you
Vista Home Premium SP1 32 bits
