In all previous versions of Windows, if you had something (like a file in
explorer) selected, and you wanted to drag it to another open program (and
you have auto-hide enabled for the taskbar), you would just drag the
selected item to the taskbar, it would pop-up and you would drag to program
you wanted in the taskbar to bring that program to the front, and then drag
your selection into that new program.
HOWEVER, in Vista, dragging your selection to the taskbar with auto-hide
enabled does NOT bring up the taskbar from hiding. So, you have NO idea
where the program you want to open is on the taskbar.
Does anybody know why Vista does this?
