Thanks, Fred.

The whole UAC thing is supposedly an improvement over Vista (which leapfrogged), but it *is* a pain.

Problem is that, by design, we can't white list apps, on the probably legit theory that if we can, so can malware.

But the counter is that apps we know are OK (e.g. QImage or Photoshop), we have to live with the nagging for what seems like forever.  Meh....

Take care!

Fred - thanks for the insights and empathy.  I've got many years of experience in the IT world - at least up through 6 years ago when I stopped being an app dev, and opted to be a full-time photog.

I found a workaround, that's well defined, if less than satisfactory.  If I drop UAC to the lowest setting (where it says "not recommended"), then drag+drop works consistently.  When I bump the UAC back up one notch, then d+d fails again.  Incredibly aggravating.

I never nav to a folder via QImage, as it's far easier in my workflow to do this via file explorer or some of my photo-viewing apps (e.g. lightroom, photo mechanic, etc.)

You're also correct that I migrated from XP.  Will look at your comments and apply...  Many thanks!

For your CF card - I would definitely have your camera reformat it.  Lots of horror stories about how these get corrupted when "touched" by anything besides the device you're using them in.

Thanks again, Fred!

Best wishes,
Jerry

Hi there,

Just installed QImage Pro into a brand new Windows7 installation.  All's registered and seemingly OK, but I can't drag and drop files onto QImage.  When I hover the mouse over the QImage window, the cursor shows a + sign, but no files actually drop in, nor is there anything to print.

I'm quite tired already of UAC junk, but am running QImage as an admin, in case that's a factor.

Just wondering what the story is, and how to fix this...

Thanks!
Jerry

Additional comments...

QImage will not let me navigate to any folder whatsoever (i.e. in the folder bar, upper left pane).  I can type in a path, or paste one in, but it won't accept any input.

Arghhh
