Hi,

I'm really upset of the new address bar because I can't drag and drop anymore files to parent folder like in old file explorer address bar

Can you fix the problem in a close future update or tell me how to change this back to old version (exist in windows 11 file explorer)

The new address bar is above the tools bar (New - Cut - Copy - etc), the old one is bellow

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Files, folders, and storage

    WOWWW, just tried WinHawk and the explorer mod.

    Genius.

    This was one of the most used feature of win10 explorer (at least for me).

    Removing this basic feature it's not only a step back, but a pretty bad move

    for windows11 acceptance. I spent few hours trying to understand why this

    was not working, imagining some bug or problem on my machine, just to

    realize that the feature was not present anymore.

    I can't believe it.

    I hope UI will be taken in much more consideration in future, because

    my feel is that microsoft UX experts are not doing their job properly.

    Nor did I claim it was, I was using this method of doing it before the windhawk mod was updated, but that came with the caveat of not having the win11 command bar.
