Cannot add file or document to Docklet

from Stardock Forums

Hi, I have had ObjectDock for years.  It's always worked great.  Recently i have not been able to add files or documents to the Docklet.   I have version 1.90 Plus (Build 535u).   Can anyone give me any help as to why this has happened or how to fix.  Thanks for any help.  Wesley

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues.

If your running Windows 10 OD is Not supported for Win10.

While you will fine some features working and features may not.

There are no plans to update OD for Windows 10 .

I am surprised you even got version 1.90 to install on Windows 10. I used to love that version but it would not install because it's certificate was expired it said. I am running a single dock with version 2.20 and not having any issues. Have been for many years.

AzDude, thank you for the quick follow-up.  I have been running Windows 10 for a long time and have only just noticed i cannot add a document to the docklet.  Can i update to a newer version to get it to work with Windows 10?  I am not quite sure what you mean by "no plans to update OD to Win 10".   Does that mean nothing may work?  Thanks again for your help.

As I said some features of Object Dock ( any version ) may work with Win10 ( any version )

and some features won't as reported by other members.

Object Dock will no longer be updated for Windows 10 and up .

By chance, do you have Lock Dragging enabled on the dock? That would cause this issue. I think it was an option in Version 1.90 too.

Hey LightStar,

That was it! The "Lock Dragging" was on.  I did not even know that was there.  Somehow i must have turned it on at sometime unknowingly.   Thank you!  That fixed my problem.
