Drag & Drop Bug in 2.77

[SebHueter]

Hallo WinAmp Team,
I have found a bug in Drag & Drop of Music Files.

When you push the "Open" Button, then drag a file from the "Open File(s)" Window to the Playlist and then push on "Close" or "Abrrechen",

the program will be deactivatet.
OK, that´s all - good luck in programming an Anti-Bug.

As I've stated a hundred times already, you should not add files to the playlist by using the open files dialog. This is meant for creating a brand new playlist, not adding files to an already existing one. It may have worked in older versions or older Operating Systems, but Win2k & XP are more susceptible to error detection.

However, maybe the dev team can somehow fix this for the next version.
Lord knows!

In the meantime, use one of the many other different (official) methods of adding files to the playlist, as outlined in most of the above threads.
