When you are dragging items withing the list,everything highlight the item you are currently over(makes it easier to copy\move files from one place to another)

It works when you:
1.Drag items within the current window
2.From one everything window to another

It doesn't work when you are dropping items dragged from anywhere else outside the everything window(from the explorer for example)

I've fixed a crash when dragging over Everything for the next beta update, I'm not sure why its not highlighting for you. Does the cursor show a circle with a line through it?

I found what's wrong but I don't really like the solution :(
It requires the windows option "Show window contenst while dragging" which is disabled for performance reasons.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
Fixed for the next update of Everything. I wasn't handling IDropTargetHelper:Show correctly.
