Drag-and-drop no longer working in Firefox

It seems that all of a sudden I cannot drag and drop or copy and paste any files or photos to any sites in Firefox. I have tried reinstalling FF as well as disabling all addons and plugins. I am also chacked my antivirus software to make sure it is not blocking FF. Nothing has corrected this issue. I am using version 54.0.1 (64 bit)

Could you create a new profile, launch Firefox using that profile and see if the issue can be reproduced?

Hello Tonnes and thank you for your reply. I tried in safe mode and it seems to be working, so I reinstalled my plugins and it is now working again correctly. Thanks again for your assistance.

Hi! I am also having this problem, and when starting the browser in safe mode, the problem persisted. Across my home and and work macs, I have been having this problem.
