This issue occurs in other UWP or WinAppSDK apps.
It appears that the culprit is that GetStorageItemsAsync() from the drag event only returns up to 16 items.

Perhaps this is a bug from WinRT?

Sure sounds like something outside our control. I'd probably file this at https://github.com/microsoft/WindowsAppSDK/issues? They'd at least have a better way to investigate.

Makes sense, I'll go ahead and file an issue over there.

Sure sounds like something outside our control.

Despite this being an external issue, is this something that we want to fix?
I have a workaround solution that appears to work and can open a PR for.

Oh well let's try that! It wouldn't be the first workaround for weird platform behavior in our codebase 😉

Upon looking into a little further, it appears the issue only occurs when dragging and dropping from archives (7zip, WinRAR, and others). It works fine if you do it from the native file explorer though; probably because it doesn't create any temp files.

I can still open a pull request for this edge case unless you're on the side that it isn't worth fixing.

I'd love to see the PR! If it's something we can work around, let's do it. Thanks @jiejasonliu
