Drag-and-drop data file icon on handling application icon

Post by Edgar5 »

In Windows Explorer, if I drag the icon for a .TXT file onto the icon for Notepad.EXE Notepad opens that text file. Explorer++ refuses such a drag-and-drop. I'm trying to get this working - any thoughts?

I began with Explorer++ and I'm really missing this also.
Any usable work-around?
I heavily use this by dropping a log file onto a shortcut to a script to analyze it.
If it's not possible, is there a way to request a feature?
Thanks
