  Yes, that works. But as I said in my other response, I'm not a
drag-type of person! :-) So, I rather use some copy/paste method (and
(occasionally) cut/paste [1]).

[1] For file/folder transfers, I still miss the old 'Move' facility of
File Explorer. For that, cut/paste feels counter-intuitive and
'dangerous'.
