Firefox version - 82.0.03 64bits

I applied the -no-deelevate fix when I last upgraded and that worked ok Yesterday I ran Windows update - always a bad idea I know - and fixed the problems that caused, but now Firefox will no longer allow picture drag and drop. This IS a firefox issue because Chrome still works ok without any elevation command.

I have also done this: browser.launcherProcess - turn off, then turn back on

Any ideas please ?

Problem solved Windows 10 had decided to autostart Firefox - now need a session of registry hacking - so was started without the -no-deelevate fix. I should have noticed this :-( I would stll like to know why Chrome works ok though ?
