File transfer drag and drop tooltip

Probably not the most important of issues I've seen or found myself with Dw CC 2017, but one that is driving me crackers! When dragging and dropping files from local to remote server the tooltip turns into a 'no entry' icon. The files still transfer but having the tooltip do this is really off-putting. Anybody else found this and/or know a fix to return to the standard tooltip? Thanks in advance.

I've never actually drag and dropped between the local and remote sides of the Files window.

I usually just click on the files I want to work with and hit Ctrl + Shift + U to upload or Ctrl + Shift + D to download or tap the Put/Get arrows.

The "you can't do that" icon when you drag and drop is very likely an oversight on the dev team's part. It would probably be worth mentioning here so they know they forgot to change it to something that makes sense Feature Request/Bug Report Form
