Windows Terminal version

1.20

Windows build number

10.0.19045.3930

Other Software

Windows File Explorer 10.0.19041.3758

Steps to reproduce

First, ensure you logged in as an ordinary admin account (I've not tested on the built-in Administrator account yet but I guess the problem will remain.)
Method 1: Set EnableLUA=1 (enable UAC), run Terminal with admin permission, drag a file from Desktop and drop it to Terminal.
Method 2: Set EnableLUA=0 (disable UAC), directly run Terminal, and do the drag&drop.

Expected Behavior

I am simply expecting drag & drop can work.

Actual Behavior

A cursor indicating "unavailable" will be displayed through either method above.
Such drag&drop is supported by the legacy conhost but not Windows Terminal. That's weird. Don't tell me this issue is a duplicate of #14946 or #15996 and that you have already fixed this in 1.18. I tested on both 1.18 and 1.20 only to find the problem remaining.
