Drag and Drop not working with windows 8.1

Question

we using windows 8.1 for a few days now
so we installed visual basic .net 2012 and starting our projects again we used in windows 7
but now it seems that the drag and drop doesn't work in windows 8.1
we only gets a forbidden icon when we drag it over the control
please can someone tell us why windows 8.1 won't work with drag and drop
we hope this can be fix in anyway because we don't like when our users use our programs
and tell us that this point wont work in windows 8.1
our code:
Private Sub FlowLayoutPanel1_DragDrop(sender As Object, e As DragEventArgs) Handles FlowLayoutPanel1.DragDrop
If (e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.FileDrop)) Then
e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.FileDrop)
End If
End Sub
Private Sub FlowLayoutPanel1_DragEnter(sender As Object, e As DragEventArgs) Handles FlowLayoutPanel1.DragEnter
Try
If (e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.FileDrop)) Then
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy
Else
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Exit Sub
End Try
End Sub
Thank you.

Hi,
Welcome posting in TechNet forum.
Do you mean the drag and drop action of files within different application?
We may take a try to disable the UAC settings and see if the drag and drop would work. And please note if we have UAC disabled, Windows Store APPs would be expected not going to work.
For the coding edit stuff, I suggest we keep focus on the MSDN thread.
