On the Command Prompt Window, type sfc /scannow and press the Enter key. If that doesn't work, try clicking a file with the right mouse button and keeping the button down while pressing Escape. On the Run Command Window, type cmd and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter keys to open the Command Prompt with Admin privileges. Drag and drop is miraculously re-enabled. In Windows Explorer, click a file with the left mouse button and keep the button held down. Perhaps (no guarantee) this will work (with the box NOT checked): I take it when the box is NOT checked, you can't click and drag at all. If you are using a MacBook or Mac laptop, you can use the track pad, which the touch sensitive part below the keyboard to right click on a MacBook Air without a mouse. With the Trackpad menu open click on the Secondary Click option and it will give you options of how you’d like to utilize the right-click features. The Ctrl key on you Mac keyboard is at the far end, either on the left or right side and nowhere near the space bar.
