Please tell us more precisely what you tried to do.  With

(setq mouse-drag-and-drop-region 'shift)

dragging the rectangle by one "character to the left" and dropping it
with the shift key pressed gets me

;; Thisbuff buffer is for text that is not saved, and for Lisp evaluation.
;; To ceatereate a file, visit it with C-x C-f and enter text in its buffer.
