Attached file has a name longer than 130 characters. Actual results: File is saved, but its name is truncated at 130 chars (also filename extension is cut out) Expected results: Attached file should have its original name when saved by drag-n-drop
Summary: Attachments with names longer than 130 chars are truncated when saved → Attachments with names longer than 130 chars are truncated when saved by drag-n-drop

Total path length limitations still apply on windows (260). I bet that's what's actually causing this...
