Would you please confirm if this is the same bug I am seeing? Getting two different bugs on Ubuntu 17.10 with dragging and dropping files, and they're both between nautilus and nautilus-desktop program interactions.
1. When dragging a file from the desktop (nautilus-desktop) over onto a nautilus window, nautilus-desktop becomes unresponsive and must be restarted (or logging out and back in). Dragging and dropping files around within the desktop works fine, and within nautilus windows works fine as well. 2. When dragging a file from a nautilus window onto the desktop, it doesn't freeze either of them up, but it does make a copy of the file instead of moving the file, even though both files are on the same filesystem. When dragging and dropping files within a nautilus window, or within the desktop, files are moved as expected and not copied. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1727057 Title: Drag and Drop Malfunction Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After upgrading from Ubuntu 17.04 64bit to 17.10 transferring a file from one folder to another fails with drag and drop. The grab will move the file but not drop it. It is as if the mouse-up does not register. The grab remains but mouse will not release until I log out of my account and log in again. The right click "move to" will work to move files.
