I'm having the exact same problem! I've tried using an alternative
file manager (xplorer2) and I get the same result when dragging and
dropping. When I right-click on a folder that contains a large file
(700MB+) and drag it to a different location/folder, the program that
I used to do the operation (Windows Explorer or xplorer2) crashes
after I release the mouse button. I began seeing the problem after
Windows Update updated my installation of Windows Vista Ultimate.
Here's a listing of the updates that were applied:
5/11/2007: Update for Outlook 2007 Junk Mail Filter (KB934655)
5/11/2007: Security Update for Office 2007 (KB934062)
5/11/2007: Security Update for CAPICOM (KB931906)
5/11/2007: Update for Windows Mail Junk E-mail Filter [May 2007]
(KB905866)
5/11/2007: Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 in
Windows Vista (KB931768)
5/11/2007: Update for Office 2007 (KB934393)
5/11/2007: Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - May 2007
(KB890830)
5/11/2007: Definition Update for Windows Defender - KB915597
(Definition 1.18.2540.1)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. As much as I enjoy using the
command line, I've become a little to accustomed to dragging and
dropping.
Thanks,
