Sonar X3e: unable to drag and drop import Mp3s

Hi all,  I was working away on a project in Sonar where I previously was able to drag/drop inserted MP3s.  But all of the sudden that feature stopped working and the only way I can do it now is to File --> Import.   Did I turn off a setting by accident?

    Drag and drop from the OS breaks when SONAR is run as administrator. Drag and drop should always work from the media browser in SONAR.

    I don't think I was running Sonar as Admin.  I just double-clicked it and ran it from Start Menu like normal.

    Are the mp3s on the same disk as SONAR or the SONAR Project files?

    Also check the MP3 your trying to import, there man be an error with the file or it may be a different format you are mistaking for an MP3.
    I've done this before thinking I was importing an MP3 when in reality it was a different type of file.
