fb2k doesn't remember last window size, drag & drop don't

So troubles and troubles after reinstalling lots of drivers and installing latest Win8x64 updates, launching foobar does remember the window position, but not the playlist size, also drag and drop mp3s from folders to player do not work anymore it gives that stop icon on mouse pointer, also right click and enqueue with foobar doesn't do anything. The only way to add mp3s now is via right click and open with or go via foobar file -> open. Tried with and without admin permissions, same.

But I don't understand what 'elevated explorer ' is.

"Elevated" means that the process is run with Administrator privileges, instead of user privileges, which you'd want to avoid in general.

I have done a quick test:
Working drag and drop from non-elevated Explorer to elevated foobar2000: no
Working drag and drop from elevated Explorer to non-elevated foobar2000: yes

So, make sure not to run foobar2000 with Administrator privileges (which you should not do in any case).
It's only audiophile if it's inconvenient.
