Hello Bob, I am not using Vista but if you rightclick on the dock make sure that lock dragging is Not checked.

It's My Secret

Hi Bob,

I had noticed recently that the drag & drop on Vista with UAC on was sometimes still problematic. We'll have that fixed for the next update for sure

Thanks Jeff.

The problem now seem to be solved, at least on my end.

Here's the info you asked about and how the problem was solved for me.

Yes, UAC is on. I am running under my administrator account (bad boy, yes, I know). I didn't know whether I was trying to run OD+ "as administrator" or not. I checked the shortcut under All Programs on the start menu. The "Run As Administrator" check box was NOT checked.

For no good reason I clicked on that shortcut to start OD+. Magically I was able to drag and drop to my docks.

I have always started OD+ from Stardock Central. So, I unloaded OD+ and restarted it from Stardock Central. Now I was back to drag and drop not working. So it appears that SC may be part of the cause of the problem.

As a side note UAC always raises it's ugly head every time I start Stardock Central. Maybe this is contributing to the problem.

Thanks for the help. Your questions lead me to the solution, even if by accident.

Bob

Thanks for the complement. But at a minimum it was a team effort. I never would have thought that "run as administrator" would have that effect.

Thanks so much for your help.
