Problems with Drag and Drop

$

Hello everyone.

 

First of all, thank you for this amazing product! I am a student of software programming and really like the capabilities of VMWare Player to run Virtual Machines on a end-user OS!

 

But I currently have some troubles with the drag and drop function...

 

I am running Version 6.0.1 build-1379776 on Windows 7 Prof 64-bit.

Everything worked well a few days ago and I installed a Win XP and a Win Server 2012 R2 Machine (both with latest VMWare Tools ofc). Drag and Drop worked well and I could install software on it.

But suddenly Drag and Drop didn't work anymore after installing some Windows Updates on the Win Server 2012 machine :-(

Then I reinstalled it, but with no success. I also noticed that the Drag and Drop function is broken on the Win XP machine aswell! So I reinstalled VMWare completely.

But the drag and drop function is still not working :-(

 

If I drag an element in, there isn't that "+" Icon, its that drop-denied-icon (sorry I couldn't copy it out)

 

Usually if I dropped something in, it started xfering that file, but now it does not anymore.

 

As this is a big disadvantage for usability, I'd like to ask, if you have ideas what the problem could be, or if VMWare Players comes with error logging functions which I could read out?

 

Thanks for your support in advance,

Vinzenz
