New Windows 11 file explorer can't drag and drop in address bar

I just got my right click useability removed today, apparently by a Windows update. No registry edit feature will restore the old right click ability to copy, cut, paste, move, etc...

How is the new way of doing this more effective or efficient than simply right clicking? (Ps. I also prefer words over Microsoft's icons). There was nothing wrong with the older (and quicker) way of doing these simple tasks.

Now: highlight the file with one left click, go all the way up to the "address bar" and select what you want to do, go to the folder you want to paste/move to and left click, then go back to the address bar and select paste. How is this better than right click over file or folder, menu pops up near the file, mouse to command (copy, cut, etc...) and left click, go to destination folder and left click then right click, menu pops up, and left click to paste. Way less mouse movement up and down with the old way.

Now it's back today??? (3-10-24) Maybe the reg edit script worked on the second reboot?

Here is what I used: How to open the full right-click menu by default on Windows 11 (xda-developers.com)

Or: How to restore cut and paste right click availability in windows 11 - Microsoft Community

Seriously, stop removing useful features in new updates without being able to restore them...

I have two Windows 11 computers, and the drag and drop to the breadcrumb bar works on one and not on the other. I have no idea what the difference is except one was "upgraded" to Windows 11 a while ago, and the other one was done recently. I don't know if the older W11 machine ever had trouble with the drag and drop, but it works now.

The one where drag and drop to the address bar still works either never got upgraded to the new explorer or is running a patch or mod that enables the older Explorer. It could be the older Windows 11 Explorer or the Windows 10 Explorer (that's accessible on all Windows 11 computers via the Control Panel). Please post a screenshot so we can see what you've got there.

And run WinVer and post the Windows build version.

Well, I did a comparison of the OS on both machines, and there are differences. The biggest one I can find is Windows Home versus WIndows Enterprise. But it seems silly that such a feature would be limited in such a way. See the attached image.

1. WIndows Version
2. WIndows Edition
3. Experience Pack

A. Windows Enterprise allows drag and drop.

B. Windows Home does NOT allow drag and drop.

To me it should be a no-brainer to enable drag and drop on all editions/versions of Windows 11 if it previously existed on all editions/versions of Windows 10. Am I wrong?
