    I've issues with this mod manager, due to drag and drop not working.

    With it working you can drag dazip files easily into the mod manager to easily manage them.

    However the main issue is override folder files. On the mod manager you need to go to Override Creator tab, create a new Override Packet and then drag the files from an mod into that folder on the bottom right.

    With drag and drop being broken, this becomes an issue.

    HOW TO FIX:
    1. Make sure files you want to drag and drop are extracted somewhere. Dragging while opening the package in 7zip won't let you drag to the mod manager.

    2. Run the mod manager as an Administrator.

    3. Change compatibility mode to an different Windows version. I was desperate as doing step 1 and 2 did not fix drag and drop. Changing compatibility to windows 7, xp did not work. Only changing to compatibility to Windows 8 worked for me. So try all the compatibility options from latest to oldest to see if drag and drop works.

    It's seems to be an issue that cripples this mod manager. I've tried googling and searching this nexusmod forum thread for concrete answers. Someone mentioned there something about having an 3rd party file explorer being the solution/issue? Anyways please share other solutions if you also ran into this issue.
