Zotero 7 & Windows 11 Pro - Drag & Dropg not working

PeneauAu

Good afternoon,

First of all, thank you for the updated version of Zotero !
However, I would like to report that I can no longer drag and drop a PDF file from a folder (say "downloads") directly into my library Zotero.

The mouse icon turns to the forbidden sign.

It is infortunate because we use often this method to upload our publications on Zotero.

Is there a fix / an alternative to restaure that trick please ?

Thank you in advance !

This should still work. The "Add File" option from the toolbar does the same thing:

If that's greyed out, you're looking at a group that doesn't allow adding files or you don't have the permissions to add files in the group.

While I was exploring the forum to report another problem (right clic to "locate file" missing), I found in another thread the solution to all my issues.

I simply rebooted my computer and Zotero V7.0 works smoothly and includes all the options I was missing !
Now, we can drag PDFs in and out of Zotero & right clic offers the "locate file". Absolutely perfect !

Sorry for the inconvenience !
