HI @yash-lucid,

Thanks for posting about this. I just gave this a try in the latest AE and Premiere version (26.0 for both) and the drag-and-drop worked on my Windows machine. Have you tried a system restart after updating to the new versions? If that doesn’t work, creating some log files (Help > Enable Logging) from After Effect might shed more light on what’s happening.

Cheers,
