<div>This test only applies to platforms where dropping a file onto a folder in the system's file manager copies/moves the file to that folder.</div>
<ol>
<li>Open an empty folder in your system's file manager.</li>
<li>Select a non-empty file on your computer using the following input: <input type="file"></li>
<li>Drag the orange square onto the folder in your system's file manager, and release it:<br><span draggable="true"></span></li>
<li>Pass if the file is copied to the folder.</li>
