#811 Drag and Drop Extracting Unreliable
Drag and dropping files from PeaZip to Explorer is unreliable and sometimes doesn't do anything. From my testing, this seems to only happen when first opening a file (back-to-back attempts without closing PeaZip works) and when dragging multiple files.
Can reproduce on PeaZip 9.8.0 on Windows 11 23H2.
PeaZIP 10 I get a freeze when dragging and dropping to my home folder. In this case the homefolder is typed in the addressbar, so if your username were to be PeaZipUser then you type PeaZipUser or %userprofile% in the adresbar to go to the folder in the broken way. Manually navigating to the folder trough C:\Users\PeaZipUser would not reproduce the issue.
Similarly if I disable the native drag and drop feature the incorrect behavior in that case produces a selection dialogue where to save. This behavior I did encounter on previous editons of PeaZIP but PeaZIP is also the only software which can not drag and drop to this folder.
Thank you for reporting the issue, I'm working on a fix for the next update of PeaZip.
So far I fixed the freeze introduced in this specific case with release 10, I'm working on identifying the causes of other unreliable behaviors.
Same thing Peazip 10 on windows 11 23h2

Thanks for all the hard work on this program, I have loved it for awhile now!
10.1 introduced fixes to make the drag and drop more reliable working with a wider pool of file managers.
This bug was reproduced on test machines and fixed by 10.1 update.
