Drag and Drop Feature Doesn't working in 3D Max 2021?

Hello Everyone,

in prior versions this Drag & Drop feature was working successfully.

But I have installed 3DMax 2021, now I cant use this Drag and Drop feature when I want to assign any Jpeg file for "VrayMtl".

I want to drag and drop jpeg of a material to Diffuse section in Basic Parameters, in to the Material Editor.

Please See Attachments.

Are you trying to drag and drop from Windows Explorer? If Max is running as 'Administrator' drag and drop won't work. Make sure it's not running as an Administrator and try again.

Hi,

 

If you can't get this working, maybe try this script: https://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/droptoslate
I use it, and it seems to be very handy. It might fix the broken functionality in 2021?

Regards,
