Our company is transitioning to Office 365 and users who have already experienced this transition have lost the ability to drag and drop files from File Explorer to/from SharePoint. Will this functionality be restored for Office 365 users? Please?? We have several different sites for different groups and this is a feature we use regularly for multiple documents.

- AdriennePMay 10, 2022Copper ContributorWhich is very time consuming when transferring files from one SP site to another. We set the system up like it is because the D&D functionality made the process smooth. Without it, it is cumbersome, and I can see us just going back to our shared drive. Upgrades should improve functionality, not make it harder.
- bruttiumMay 10, 2022Copper ContributorHi. I'm just a fellow user here...But what browser are they using? When using Edge or Chrome I am not experiencing a problem with dragging a new file into a library. All I can imagine at this point is that it's an outdated browser or perhaps some sort of web-part issue (in which case, try dragging a file directly to a library and see if it works, rather than dragging to the web-part.)
- AdriennePMay 10, 2022Copper ContributorWe have tried it with Edge, Chrome, Firefox, and IE. SharePoint 2019, with Outlook 365. Drag and Drop isn't working even though it appears the settings should allow it.
- bwernetMay 10, 2022Copper ContributorWe can drag and drop files with edge/chrome/firefox from and to a sharepoint document library - through it is sometime a little fussy on where you have to drop the files. Event dropping full directories work.
