Why files cannot be directly dragged and dropped into the software, and the mouse pointer is displayed as a forbidden icon?

Software Permission Requirements

because our software needs to modify and delete files on your computer in batches, we need higher permissions.

At the beginning, our software only needs normal permission to start by default, but many users install the software directly into disk c, which is a system disk, so they will encounter permission problems when running the software, resulting in problems such as failure to open and error reporting. There are also some users who often deal with files on the desktop. Note here that the desktop is also in the system disk, so errors will be reported when processing files.

In order to solve the problem of permission error when processing files, we double-click to open the software by default to start as an administrator, thus solving the problem of processing file error, but if the user is not "super administrator", it will lead to the problem of "drag and drop invalid.

In a word, we have made a balance for the time being, first ensuring that there will be no problem with the user's permissions, thus making some users drag and drop invalid. For most users, handling files without errors is the most important thing.

Solution (elevate computer privileges)

1. Change the current computer account to administrator

control Panel → User Accounts → Change Account Type → Administrator

2. Press Windows R on the keyboard to enter the running interface, then enter the following code and confirm

gpedit.msc

note: If an error is reported, it means that the configuration function on your computer is disabled and the system settings cannot be changed. Therefore, this error needs to be solved first: download and decompress this file → right-click this bat file → run as administrator → restart this step after running.

3. Enter the Local Group Policy Editor → Computer Configuration → Windows Configuration → Security Settings → Local Policy → Security Options → Pull the scroll bar to the bottom on the right, find the option of "Run All Administrators in Administrator Approval Mode" → Double-click this option, and select "Disabled" → OK → Restart the computer in the pop-up window.
