    Having updated to v44 of Firefox I find that I can't drag username/password across. Using v1.30 of Keepass and Win10.
    Cutting and pasting username/password works - as does auto-type.
    Dragging works fine in Chrome.
    Am I missing enabling something in Firefox or what?

    Can you drag n drop from other apps to FireFox?
    KeePass to other apps?

    cheers, Paul

      Paul,
      I only use dragging with Keepass; so not sure how to answer your specific questions.
      My testing shows it works in other browsers (Chrome, Microsoft Edge) but not Firefox since update to v44 (worked fine in previous versions)
      cheers
      Len

      Have been checking on Firefox support forums and the same problem is now being reported there by others. So definitley a Firefox issue with v44!

    I've just updated to FF 44 and D&D works from KeePass 2.30.
    Is it a specific form that you can't use, maybe a password box?

    cheers, Paul

    No it doesn't work for any entry in Keepass.
    As you say D&D works in Keepass 2.30: but it doesn't in the simpler version (1.30).
    Not sure if I have Microsoft net installed to let me run 2.30.

    I can reproduce this with KeePass 1.29 and 1.30.
    D&D works into Notepad++ so it looks like some Firefox strangeness.

    cheers, Paul
