    I used to be able to drag and drop files and folders with xp but with Win 7, I am unable to do so.
    Thank you

    Right click on the Windows Icon start button and select properties. Click the "Start Menu" tab and select customize. Is "Enable context menus and dragging and dropping" checked?

    I have no idea why it isn't working for you guys, but here's the proof that left button drag and drop to (My) Documents does work in Win 7 64-bit. (It's also called My Documents here because it's a shared folder with XP and in the pic I'm dropping a music file into Documents).
