Dragging and dropping files doesn't work properly

I'm getting an error saying "cannot create classfile" and the files that are created look completely different. I ended up just deleting my project.

Help!

The only thing I found that works is to add the files to the folders individually, and not in a group. I literally copied and pasted each one at a time. After that's done, do Build > Rebuild project.
