Is LilyPond installed with administrative rights? That's a common reason for
drag and drop not to work (it's forbidden in that case).

Subject: Lilypond not generating PDF
I installed Lilypond pn Windows 10. I followed the intstructions of
updating the path. Then I put the test.ly file on the desktop. Then
placed it's icon over the Lilypond icon.
Two files were created: test and test-tmp-9972888,
This is the content of test:
# -*-compilation-*-
Processing `C:/Users/Ben/Desktop/test.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
Preprocessing graphical objects...
Finding the ideal number of pages...
Fitting music on 1 page...
Drawing systems...
Converting to `/Users/Ben/Desktop/test.pdf'...
The tst-temp file starts with:
%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Creator: LilyPond 2.22.1
%%Pages: 1
%%PageOrder: Ascend
%%Orientation: Portrait
%%DocumentMedia: a4 595.28 841.89 80 () ()
%%DocumentSuppliedResources: font C059-Bold
%%DocumentSuppliedResources: font C059-Roman
%%DocumentSuppliedResources: font Emmentaler-20
%%EndComments
Any ideas as to what could be wrong?
Thanks,
Ben
