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

Anonymous

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

For some reason I was able to do it the other day. I just did about 5 different Enterprise installs.

Probably will never happen again right!

Comeon gents, do you need someone to show you how to make a P.O.E.S ?!

Proper operating environment system.

Clearly, no one is happy with this change. Please bring back drag and drop in address bar.

Thanks,
