Using "add" to add items to the catalog.  If I click the import button the right side of the import window is correct and looks like this:



Note the "Apply During Import" section.   However, if instead of clicking import I drag a folder to the Lightroom icon the "Apply During Import" section is missing.  It also look like the last used develop and metadata settings are applied to the images.

This is a regression.  Now the import window looks like this.

Lightroom Classic 9.0 was released earlier today and contained a fix for this issue. Please give it a try and confirm it is working for you after updating. Thanks for your patience.

I just updated to LR Classic 8.4.1 --- AND IT STILL DOESN'T WORK! Come on Adobe, do you job! I pay you every flippin month to do just that. It's so irritating, THIS USED TO WORK!!! WHY DID YOU REMOVE IT?

Edit: I used to just drag a folder onto the LR icon and import that way. Now I have to make sure LR is open, then drag the folder into the library.

You are brilliant Mayuri Jain. I have been on the phone with Adobe for over two hours and no one could resolve it.
