Remote File Sharing - Drag And Drop Using LogMeIn
Aug 19, 2011
I am an Access Developer. I have been using LogMeIn to connect to clients remotely and also, on occasion, to send or receive files. I have discovered that Remote Assistance seems to do the same thing, however, what does seem to be missing is the ability to transfer files conveniently from one machine to another. Is there something I'm missing or is this not a part of Remote Access?
If it is not, is there something else that Windows 7 offers that is basically the same thing as file transfer in LogMeIn? If not, is there some other way of looking at the problem that others use when they need to send or receive files from another computer. The files I am talking about are not extraordinarily large. It is very convenient in LogmeIn to see my drives in one pane and the clients in another and to just be able to drag and drop.

I have two laptops an ASUS with windows 7 ultimate and the other with windows 7 home premium. I also have a built desktop with windows server 2008 r2. I have enabled remote connection on the server and can log on with all of the user accounts. But I can not file share when I have remotely connected to the desktop using remote desktop connection. I have enabled printer and clipboard and then went in to more and selected the drive i wanted to share. I then logged on to remote desktop and the drive is not listed in computer management or in my computer. Is it an issue in the windows server os that I need to do?

When I try to drag and drop to my desktop, it's says "save to desktop" but it doesn't. I also can't close firefox using the "x". I'd have to right click and close. Also, when I'm in excel, it highlights all the cells I hover over. Tried the following:
restarting esc and ctrl keys are not stuck clicklock is not checked in control panel no vmware installed dropbox, evernote but uninstalled it just in case

I was unable to move files around in Windows by dragging and dropping. I am fully capable of dragging the files, but as soon as I drop them, they just go right back to where they were. No moving, no copying, no error message, just a lack of anything past me dragging an icon and it resuming its original position.

Has anyone had any recent issues with Drop and Drag. I cannot drag anything anymore and was thinking it was due to a system update or something like that. I dont think it has anything to do with my laptop.

I have a Dell Studio laptop which has 4GB ram and a core 2 duo processor with a Windows 7 OS.. The problem with this laptop is that, I am not able to drag and drop icons on the desktop nor in the folders... Drag and Drop never functions.. I feel convinient using Drag and drop and now this is a big nuisance for me as I am not able to freely move my desktop icons nor drag and drop the files into folders as and when required.. I also unchecked the auto arrange Desktop in the context menu.. I tried in Safe Mode.. I used a bunch of Registry cleaners, C Cleaners and what not everything.. But I am not able to solve this problem.. Can you please let me know how I should solve this problem...
Also I also have another problem during the Startup of my computer.Once I start my computer and once all Icons and taskbar come, I try to open any application or any program like IE or Firefox and when I open it, the windows freezes and says not responding.I try opening "Task Manager " from the Task Bar and and even right click does'nt function.I feel as if everything freezes up and so I need to hit "Alt+Ctlrl+Del" for opening Taskmanager.. This sounds very wierd for me as I have to do this same operation every time..My configuration is above mentioned and I also share this little info with you.My hard Disk memory usage is about 268Gb of 280Gb with a single partiotion.

So i've come across an interesting "issue" recently. Here at work we are beta testing our Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit. There's something that is very quirky about the way items are dragged onto a script files.
Some background into the issue. We use a custom script to submit data in the form of an excel sheet into a database. The script is a .hta file. Under Windows XP and Windows 7 32bit, we were able to just drag and drop the excel file onto the .hta, and it would run the .hta script and format/submit the excel file to our database. Under Windows 7 64bit, when you drag it over the .hta file, it just gives you a red x, and won't allow you to drop it.
Anybody knows if there's a security setting, or an option/registry setting to regain this functionality?

I'm not sure if this is the right section but anyway, I'm wondering if its possible to turn drag/drop into cut.For example: when I have to folders open next to each other, and I select a bunch of files from the left folder, and I drag / drop them to the right folder, it copies the files.

Basically what happens is when I try to rearrange the pinned icons on the Start Menu by drag and drop it doesn't work properly. Like I try to move something to the top and it goes to the middle, from the middle to the bottom and it goes somewhere in between. It's ridiculously frustrating. I have tried unpinning and re-pinning everything, still no luck.

I'm trying to load some instructional Spanish language CDs into my PC, to transfer to my Samsung Galaxy S II. However, when I select the tracks in Microsoft Media Player to drag to the right of the interface, the tracks won't "drop".I've somehow managed to load some French CDs into my phone, yet I cannot remember the methodology.

I have tried to copy a complete file heirarchy from one drive to a folder on another drive but found several files and folders are not being copied.
There is no report of files missed or any kind of error message.
I am actually trying to copy the contents of a friends hard drive onto a backup drive since he is getting a new computer and wants to ensure nothing is lost. I have mounted his internal 2.5 sata drive in a caddy and am copying it to my computers second internal drive.
I expected not be be able to copy certain system files. I also expected I might not to be able to copy some of his personal files due to the standard windows system protection (I am system administrator on my PC whereas of course he was administrator on his PC where the files and folders were created which I thought might be an issue). When I first tried to view some folders I was asked by the system if I wanted to allow permanent administrator priviliges to them (namely his personal directory under "Users" ). I replied yes and was thereafter allowed to descend into and view those files. Now when I copy the entire heirarchy of some 35GB I find the new folder is only 15GB. It is not just down to any compression as I have confirmed that there is only about 1/3 of the expected number of files to what was in the original. I have since tried individually copying some of the sub-folders that were missed and they copy fine on their own. As you can imagine, trying to dentify what has copied and what has not is a mammoth undertaking.

I recently got a new computer at work with Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2010. I'm having issues in both Excel and Outlook when I try to drag and drop an item, instead of just dropping when I take my finger off of the mouse button, I'm having to click a second time on the mouse to get it to drop the item. I have googled this problem and tried multiple things to trouble shoot without success. It is driving me crazy!I have downloaded new mouse softwareTried another mouseUndocked and tried with touchpadrebootedChecked settings in Excel and drag and drop is enabled.

Wondering if there should be a STICKY, GROUPS or THREADS for TIPS and TRICKS? in this forum -combined perhaps with a wish list that we can send to MSFT every month
Anyway, one thing I really like about OS X is the ability to drag a folder from desktop to computer, then the window auto opens, displaying root, then you can drag over another folder (which opens to display sub root) and so on until you find the place where you want to dump the folder.
Is there a way to do this in Win 7 (or Vista)?
EDIT: NEW = it will allow you to drag a folder from desktop to start button than into my documents folder. Not bad but better than nothing. All we need now is for my documents to open and have it display sub folders and/or the ability to drag anywhere. Advice?

I've been using using Win 7 Pro x64 for several weeks now, before that I used XP Pro x32.I'm facing a really annoying issue regarding the context menu in the explorer.I have several applications using the context menu, such as Winamp, IZArc or my antivirus, i.e. a right clic on a file or folder displays special context menu entries related to these programs.But when I drag and drop a file using the right button, the context menu only displays "default" entries: Copy here, Move here, Create shortcut here, Cancel.

I have an HP desktop running Windows 7 Professional, and a Lenovo laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium. I am having the following problem on both computers:
I cannot drag and drop files to a blank CD on either machine. If I put a blank CD-R (or CD-RW) in the drive, then open Computer, then click on the CD's icon, I get an error message: "Windows can't read the disc in drive E: Make sure that the disc uses a format that Windows recognizes. If the disc is unformatted, you need to format it before using it."If I right click, then click "Open," or "Open with," I get the same message. There are no options to format the disk.
I have tried uninstalling the drive through device manager, then rebooting and letting the computer find and reinstall it, but that does not solve the problem. I have tried running the Troubleshooter, but it finds nothing wrong.
Two interesting things to add to all this: First, My wife's Toshiba laptop works fine. I can take the exact same blank CD that my 2 computers cannot write to, put it in her's and drag and drop files to it just fine.
Second, All three computers can then read that CD, and any others that were written on her computer.

Enable or Disable, either or and one can figure the other, but Enable or Disable Drag and Drop of Files/Folders in EXPLORER via the Registry. This is NOT about the desktop, NOT the Internet, Not the StartMenu. That should surely narrow it down i hope
I have a similar post but not for WIndows Xp but not Windows 7 and while I am told its similar for XP/7 I have not found the case..... Vista I am told is slightly different yet. But, I am looking for registry edit/tweak under a similar key such as in the HKCU or HKLM as listed (should be close):
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorer
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAdvanc ed
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrent VersionPoliciesExplorer
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrent VersionPoliciesExplorer
Whether I was off on the timing/correation I have tried the following Keys/Subkey names: EnableDragDrop, DisableDragDrop, DragDrop, DragAndDrop....... noe of these seem to have an effect.
I toyed with these but were not any of the issue (or before): HKCUSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInternet Settingsones...

I have been most the day trying to solve these issues and nothing has worked. Basically I moved house couple of weeks ago and just go round to plugging my computer in and these are the issues I am having, whether they are all related I wouldn't know...
1.I can't copy and paste files , whether it's by mouse or keyboard. It seems to work on text by not files.When I try to copy and paste files it makes the noise it doe's like if you were to press an incorrect key .
2.I can't move files from one fold to another or on to my desktop.
3.I can't seem to view any pictures in windows photo viewer it just says loading all the time.
4.I went on to account settings to see if it was to do with administrative properties but I am classed as the admin anyway and even when I click on create a new user or manage user settings (anything with the admin symbol near the option) it just doe's nothing.I Have rebooted,system restored and lots of other things that people have suggested by nothing works , even on safe mode it doe's the same and on hidden admin that i unlocked. I really am stuck. I have just done a sfc /scannow and it says it found corrupted files but couldn't fix them.

I use an old XP app (JetToolbar - available at JetToolBar - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com) and do not want to change but I cant make it work on Windows 7. The application installs and starts up just fine but it is not possible to drag icons/programs/files to the toolbar - I just get the 'no entry' sign (Circle with line through)However, the application runs fine when logged on to the hidden Administrator account. If I set up the application in the hidden Admin account and then log on as a normal admin user and run it from that account, the icons I set up are just not visible.So what do I have to change in my normal user account (member of administrators) to make this drag and drop work?I have tried 'Run as administrator' but that made no difference. Ive read about dropping to 'Run as User' apps from 'Run as Admin' apps but that's not the problem (at least problem occurs when app is run as user or run as admin)
