Can't drag and drop files into existing Notepad++ window
-
I’ve tried the following solutions I’ve read elsewhere…
- Remove “Start In” directory from the file properties on the executable
- Turn off “Run as administrator”
I still cannot drag and drop files onto the app. When I was on Windows 10, I had no problems with this feature, but I just got a new laptop with Windows 11 and brand new install of Notepad++ and I cannot drag and drop to work.
I’m running Windows 11 and Notepad++ v8.6.1.

Hello,
did you find a solution? I have the same problem and have done anything what I have found in the internet without any success.

We cannot know what instructions you did or did not try. If we don’t know what you’ve tried, how can we know what we should or should not suggest? If we try to suggest anything, you would likely come back and say “I already tried that”, but there was no way for us to know.
If you want help, explain the exact circumstances of what’s causing the problem, share your ?-menu’s Debug Info, and let us know what you tried. Don’t make us guess.
