Just another thing I'm not getting to work. I have an Explorer Window, mark a
file and want it to drag to a cmd window.
Both windows are visible but nothing happens.
I could use in Windows NT4/2000/XP
Any things to configure as it's easy to upload files via ftp or change
directory via this.
 
Yeah, that does seem to be gone. Don't know of any way to bring it back.
Best thing I know of is that if you <Shift>+Right-click on a file, you'll
have a 'Copy as Path' option. Then, if QuickEdit it turned on for the
Command Prompt, a right-click will paste the path.
 
Thanks a lot :)
It's sure a lot more work then doing it via drag&drop but hey, it's a new
windows and new rules :)
