      I don't know if this possibility exists in Win10 and is just a bug, or if there is no such possibility.
      Currently, in my case, importing an svg file is possible only via Import dialog window.
      This is how it works in Affinity:

        @encart Drag&drop from explorer works here (from the regular file list).
        What is the shortcut for that kind of search box on Windows?

            I'm using an app called Listary (https://www.listary.com/)
            This search box appears every time I press Ctrl twice.

              @encart Does drag&drop work if done from the regular file explorer app?

                @VectorStyler I can not explain how, but it works now. From search bar and file explorer as well. I didn't restart the app. VS was running in background. Since I remember I have random problems with opening files assigned to VS from file explorer, SVG's for example. I coudn't find any sequence yet. Do you have any ideas what should I do to get closer to solving the problem when it arises?
