Can you grab a screen recording of what you're dragging/dropping into Terminal? Knowing if you're attempting to drop text, or files, or tabs would definitely help clarify here.

Also, Server 2022 is suspicious. I'd guess that there's something weird about that SKU where the modern drag-drop service doesn't necessarily work the same. Does it crash the Terminal, or just silently fail/? Does drag-drop work in other WinUI apps (like, Calculator?)

Unfortunately, due to a Windows platform limitation on the UI framework we chose to use (WinUI), we are unable to offer even same-user-account drag and drop as Admin.

Other notes from our investigation:

The output of

reg query HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v EnableLUA

would be enlightening.

Furthermore, it looks like the modern drag-drop service just doesn't work right on Server2022. We can allow our tabs to be drag/dropped, but we're never given the opportunity to accept the drop.

Nothing we (the terminal) can actually do to fix that. That's just how we get drag/drop events.
