I am unable to drag-and-drop fonts to Pablo Impallari’s font testing page when running a Windows 10 VM under virtual box. Does anybody know what causes this and how to fix it?

Try MS Edge browser. See if the problem exists there, too. I'm installing Chrome on a win10 build I've got. See what happens....

Resolved I assume. Any tips to share?0

It's not resolved. Just too many other demands on my time, and I've decided to limit how much effort I throw at debugging stuff that doesn't pay off enormously.0

Where so you drag it from? I just tried it (in VMWare/Win10/Chrome). Drag it to the Windows desktop first and the into the website from there. Or add a shared folder that you can access the files from within Windows and drag it from the file explorer.2
