8 The following limitations are known for drag and drop:
9 </p>
10 <p>
11 On Windows hosts, dragging and dropping content between
12 UAC-elevated (User Account Control) programs and
13 non-UAC-elevated programs is not allowed. If you start
14 Oracle VM VirtualBox with Administrator privileges then drag and drop
15 will not work with Windows Explorer, which runs with regular
16 user privileges by default.
17 </p>
18 <p>
19 On Linux hosts and guests, programs can query for drag and drop
20 data while the drag operation is still in progress. For example,
21 on LXDE using the PCManFM file manager. This currently is not
22 supported. As a workaround, a different file manager, such as
23 Nautilus, can be used instead.
