Hi guys, since some previous updates I'm not more able to safe attached files from my incomming emails directly via drag and drop to my folders/harddrive. Every time I try an SVG of the thumbnail-grafic is saved, but not the file itself. Any idea, how I can solve this? (WIN 11, TB 91.3.2)

Are you using the Conversations add-on?

If not, does does it happen in safe/troubleshoot mode (hold Shift when launching TB)?

Thanks for your kind support, sfhowes! Yes, it works: By deactivating the "Conversations"-add-on Drag&Drop is now working as exspected. Hopefully Standard8(Mark) or Jonathan will find some time to fix this in the near future. His add-on is as useful for me as the Drag & Drop function. Maybe I will switch between both until a solution will come out. Thanks again and stay safe!
