Can't drag and drop safari images to desktop

Hi,


I just updated my version of safari 10.1 and now I suddenly can't drag and drop images to the desktop.


I just keep getting the error report message popup.

OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

Here is a clue...


I am on 27" iMac, late 2015, w/retina, El Capitan, Safari 10.1


Try this and maybe you can make some sense of it...


  1. System Preferences > Displays > Color (my default is iMac)
  2. Change Display profile to Generic RGB Profile (for example)
  3. Now try dragging and dropping in Safari


Were I an Apple engineer I would think I had a good lead here, can anyone shed some light?
