Cannot drag downloaded files from Safari toolbar on macOS 27

Ever since on MacOS 27 Golden Gate, while downloading files in Safari, a dialogue box that appears on the Safari toolbar immediately after a download behaves differently.


After a file has been downloaded, a shortcut or ‘alias’ to the file appears on the "Show downloads" button.


Previously, I could drag that alias to the desktop (or wherever I wanted) so that I didn’t have to open the Downloads folder and search for the file.


Now, instead of that functionality, the dialogue box appears separately from the taskbar and it is impossible to drag & drop the file to a different location.



How can I change this behaviour?
