Using the File>>open  works perfectly/reliably 
also the initial welcome screen [OPEN] button works fine

how can i enable Finale to respond to a MUSX file dragged into the Finale window?
It doesn't even try to open. This occurs with a freshly launched process or after editing for a while.
The cursor does show loaded with the [+] appendage indicating file is ready to be opened,
but nothing happens.

v25 and previous versions did this without changing any settings.

thank you

Mac or Windows and what version of the OS? If Mac, M1 or Intel?

 

It makes a difference.

Will Sherwood,

 

Five years ago you told in a post that you were using Windows.

Are you still using Windows?

(sorry for my delay, and thank you so much for your interest!)

Yes Win10 Pro 64-bit.  Fin27.

My laptop is the same, and dragging files in to the window area, or double clicking on the   .musx  filename in WinExplorer works on my laptop (and worked fine for Fin25 on my tower).

 

One thing that I’m trying to figure out is, and this may be pertinent (or not), when I launch Finale, it asks me if I want to allow it to change my computer, as if I’m installing something.

My user account has admin privs, but I’m fuzzy why launching an installed app  (and otherwise works fine) triggers this challenge/notification (as if it’s not an installed program).   This may be more of a windows question than Finale, but I cannot find anything on the web relating to it.

Many thanks!

Will
