ADOBE MOVE TOOL NOT WORKING WHEN EXTRACTING FILES VIA WINRAR

Question

Hello everyone!

I hope someone can help me.

This issue has been bugging me for quiet some time already.

I noticed that whenever I am extracting some files from via WinRAR, the move tool of any of my adobe software (I normally use photoshop and premier) does not work. I cannot move at any files or clips at all.

I tried doing it on a different machine but its the same. Can someone shed light to me on this and on how to address this?

Regards,

Prince

To clarify, this is what happened:

1. I was working with a project in premier. Typical day.

2. While I am working, I am also extracting files from Winrar to a specific folder in my PC. Totally not related to my work in premier.

TO FURTHER, I AM NOT TRANSFERRING OR DRAGGING ANY WINRAR FILES TO PREMIER.

3. While number 1 and 2 is happening, the move tool of my adobe premier and even photoshop (is not working). I cannot drag or move anything at all while I am extracting via WINRAR.

To clarify again, winrar extraction and premier work is two task I am doing simultaneously as I normally do these things to save time. Extraction typically takes 1-2 hours since these file size typically ranges from 500-700GB.

Looking forward for your response.
