Please Help I am extremely frustrated. I have Windows 8 [haven't upgraded to Windows 8.1 yet] and the past few days I am having ALL kinds of problems.
[1] My ability to drag and drop files and folders is no longer working.
[2] Things are opening on one click, even though I disabled that feature and set it for double clicking only
[3] I can't grab and move windows that are open, it won't allow me to do that.
[4] I also just noticed that a lot of programs that have a drop box, when I click on them, it doesn't drop the box, it just blinks down and then off...so you can't select anything.
I'm not getting any error messages. I tried the two things listed as far as registry editing...but the one that shows the drag and drop isn't even in my registry editor anymore....so I can't change it from 0 to 1 -- it's no longer there.
Also I tried to follow another suggestion [thinking it might be a virus] which stated to shut down windows restore first. When I did that it deleted all previous restorations so I can't even go ahead and try to restore.
Lastly, I do have an ongoing antivirus and spyware...both of which I run on a daily basis....
Please help though!!
