I have been used to drag every single video file into mp3tag and used it also to find my broken video files, but now it seams i cant do this anymore it wont allow me to drag broken or is it just because i moved to win11 ?

Could you explain a little more?  
Which MP3tag version do you use?  
If you suspect W11 to be the cause - how did you move to Win11?  
Do you get error messages?  
Where are the files stored? Locally? On a NAS?  
Would screenshots illustrate the problem?

I am trying to drag 1200 videos into mp3tag without luck. it is from a normal pc hardisk. I am using the latest version 3.27A

I am alo trying to move a single file but it wont accept it, i am than trying to play the video but VLC shows error.  
It was possible to drag error videos into mp3tag on earlier versions, i dont remember the versions now. That was mpstag would show a error sign so it was easy for me to see what video was broken.

Another thing if i add a single video now and than add a single video more it will take out the first video of the list. That means i have to add all at ones and cant take them one by one. 🙂 hope this makes it more clear what i mean. and it seams now it is not win11

If you can drag&drop single files, then that would mean that the function itself still works.  
You would have to check the files as

> VLC shows error

whether the files are MP4 files at all.  
You can add further files with d&d if you hold down the Ctrl key.while dragging&dropping.  
Like that you may find out which file is the problematic one.

and as it works for some files, it also does not seem to be an MP3tag issue.
