I am on a brand new install of Ubuntu 22.04.


I have chrome installed from deb and slack installed from snap.


When I try to drag a file from nautilus into either of these applications it does not work. This did work fine for me in 21.10.


Is there some way I can restore this behaviour in 22.04?

Ubuntu 22.04 runs on Wayland by default. In Wayland, with its focus on security, applications do not know of each other. One of the side effects is that drag and drop between applications is broken.


To restore the behavior of 21.10, log in to a session on Xorg. On the login screen, before entering your password, you can click the cog wheel on the bottom right and select "Ubuntu on Xorg" there.
