drag drop objects from .net application to e.g. windows explorer

the user of my app should be able to drag an object (e.g. a file) out
of my app into another folder or another app.

everywhere i found information how to drag n drop objects(files) from
one control to another control in the same application but nowhere i
found a hint how to drag objects (files) out of an app and drop them
into another one.

is someone out there who know how to do that? thanks for your help.
