Drag and Drop Broken - Windows 7/2008 r2

Ever had drag and drop stop working on you?

Oh yeah? Me either. Until this week. I work on a remote computer for some of my contracting (hence the multiple posts on RDP here), and drag and drop is crucial for what I do. So, when it stops working? Yuck.

Well, with some google-fu and some "I can't believe the fix is this simple", here's the solution:

Left-Click on a file in windows explorer. Hold the left-click. Click Esc. Seriously. That's it.

I love it when fixes are easy.
