❔ Drag and drop not working
It appears with a prohibited sign
Here's my code:
namespace WinFormsAppPrueba
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void listBox1_DragDrop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.FileDrop))
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.All;
else
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None;
}
private void listBox1_DragEnter(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
string[] files = (string[])e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.FileDrop);
}
}
}

i think your logic is backwards
you should set your curso/ effect onenter
and you should get the data on drop
i think you have to enable dropping as well
Control.AllowDrop Property (System.Windows.Forms)
Gets or sets a value indicating whether the control can accept data that the user drags onto it.
Oh yeah now it works

Even though that code is a mockup, for the real app i need admin privilage and there is failing
start the app as admin then
if you want the app to request admin then look into application manifests
namely
requestedPrivileges and requestedExecutionLevelyeah, i mean when i run the app as admin drag and drop is not allowed, @Anchy
