Hi, I'm new here... I just upgraded my version from 2.46a to 2.47a and found that I'm not able to drag files from the Windows Explorer into the Mp3tag window (the mouse pointer shows an icon that indicate that it can't be done).

I'm running Windows 7 x64, and this feature did work in the previous version.

Is this a bug?

Close and restart Mp3tag.

Solved (Thank you Dano).

Solution: Restart mp3tag and then it accepted the incoming drag and drop operation.
