      Hello,

      I just updated my Notepad++ to version 7.3.3 and restarted it.
      After restart I have lost the feature to Drag-Drop an open file and move/clone to new instance.
      I made sure about the following option being unchecked:
      Settings->Preferences->General->Lock(no drag and drop)

      Is there any other option I need to check? Please help

      Thanks,
      Keyur.

          Thanks Claudia!

          This would fix the keyboard shortcuts. I am looking for Drag-Drop with mouse.
          Is it also expected to be fixed in upcoming release?

            Hello Keyur,

            I think so. From commit (Fix drag and dropping tabs with multi-line enabled.)

            Cheers

              The Move/Clone To options aren’t back yet, but I just dragged/dropped multiple text files into an open NPP window and the tabs appear at the top just as they did in previous versions.

                what do you mean by

                Move/Clone To options aren’t back yet

                ?

                If I right click on a saved document tab I do see and can use the two functions.

                Cheers
