Thank you for reporting this issue, drag and drop not working when running as administrator is a known limitation in the WinAppSdk platform. microsoft/terminal#12017 (comment)

We should probably disable drag and drop to prevent a crash.

@hoang3402 thank you for your patience, the next version of Files will include a fix for this issue. In addition to this fix, it'll also include support for admin file operations without having to elevate Files.
