Bug: Application hang when dragging file onto a tab/folder which contains existing file with same name

See original GitHub issue

Description

Seems like a timing/threading issue maybe?

Was able to replicate the issue by acting very quickly

Seems like a problem around the conflict dialog:

Steps To Reproduce

Open a folder ‘A’ that contains a file like test.txt
Open another tab
Navigate to a 2nd folder ‘B’ that also contains a file named test.txt
Go back to the first tab
Drag the file test.txt on top of the tab for folder ‘B’
Let go of the mouse pointer right away…
Observe application hangs (sometimes before the conflict dialog appears, sometimes after), after a while it’ll close as UWP apps do.

If no hang was observed, you were too slow to drag and let go of pointer before tab switched.

Requirements

App should not hang, operation to resolve conflict should proceed as normal
