Bug Description

I have 2 monitors set up everything works fine except you are unable to "click-and-drag" extract from a zip or w/e to a destination on another screen. ex. I have file roller up on the right screen and I want to drag its contents to the "Documents" folder I have open on the left screen, it produces an error.

Which error are you getting?

The only way I can replicate this by trying to drag over an open Chrome Window, produces some "Destination folder "(null)" does not exist. Do you want to create it?" error.

Other than that, I can drag drop from one screen to another just fine.
