Configuring a Windows 8.0 computer

Running the EXE as Administrator is a work-around, but then you lose drag 'n' drop, which I find really handy with SF. Anyway, this is a known issue caused by something funky in the registry folder structure after migrating to Windows 10. I "fixed" it a couple weeks ago (and posted about it) with the Sony-recommended solution, which, IIRC, involved deleting a folder in the registry. It worked at first, but today it started happening again. I suppose I could try reinstalling SF.

So Dave, my solution, lately, for dealing with the loss of drag 'n' drop is to right-click on the file I want and use the "Open With" menu item. It's almost as convenient and avoids having to use the File/Open menu to browse for the file I'm already staring at.

Good thought. I do use this when SF isn't already open; it hasn't occurred to me to use it when SF is already open. Thanks.

Same here, until I got tired of not doing so - It actually works very nicely.
