Unsupported websites often have had the issue of the drop box not identifying particularly well, whereas official Google-related websites typically accept drag-and-drop files with ease. If you’re too impatient to wait for Chrome 85’s official release on August 25, you can opt to download Chrome Canary, which is an unstable pre-beta version of Google Chrome made for developers. This version updates every night and will be prone to crashes, bugs and errors, but if you’re desperate for Chrome’s latest and greatest updates, it might be worth it. Chrome 85 might also include a new internal PDF update that allows you to save any and all edits you’d like to document in Google Chrome.
