3. What is Drag and Drop?
   Drag and Drop is a technology for moving files and folders. In the Windows Explorer you activate a file or folder drag by clicking a file / folder holding down the left or right mouse button while moving the mouse. You will see the mouse cursor change, and the name of the file / folder is displayed next to it. If you move the mouse cursor over another folder, or in this case the BitZipper main window, and release the mouse button, the file / folder is copied to this location.
