Default Dragging MP3 and WAV

I've had no trouble dragging and dropping in audio files. Today, my MP3s will not work but WAV will. Any suggestions? Thank You.

A PC? I can drag MP3 to Edit Window and Clips with no issues. Do you have Quicktime for Windows installed?

Try checking the copy files to session and covert files options in preferences.

On Windows you can't drag-and-drop if you're running Pro Tools as Administrator under Properties>Compatibility.
