Problems with Chrome 73

[merhovon]

After my Chrome has been updated to version 73, this addon doesn't work anymore.
Or did the problem occur with a Windows/Outlook update?

Hi,

I am experiencing an issue too. This worked fine for us but in the last month or so it has stopped working. I think it is due the Outlook version which is now 1902. Can you confirm if this should work with later versions? (I am aware that the readme states 2013/2016 but checking to see if it is out-of-date).

If it is a version issue can you give some indication if you plan to support Outlook 2019?

Thanks
Mike

I just tested the plugin with Chrome 73.0.3683.103 and Outlook 2016 version 1808 (16.0.10730.20334 CTR) and it is working successfully for me.

I have not tested Outlook 2019 yet.

We have Office 16 Outlook version 16.0.11425.20244. I was able to solve the problem by starting Outlook as administrator, but this cannot be a permanent solution. Do I have to give certain rights to certain files from the addon?

I also needed to start Outlook as administrator to solve this issue.
When Outlook started it states that this add-in is disabled due to it delays the startup time for Outlook.
Any news on this issue?

For those of you having issues with issues with OutlookFileDrag and Chrome, I wanted to let you know that Chrome 76 that was released yesterday now natively supports drag and drop from Outlook. If you run this browser, then OutlookFileDrag is no longer needed. You may want to test if this works in your environment.

Thanks for the heads-up.
