Metadata vanishes when moving RAW files from folder to folder

Hello,

This was a first for me after using Bridge for many years.

I append a metadata template to a batch of Raw files.  The info is clearly there..

I then move - through drag and drop -  my Raw selects to another folder and all the template info vanishes.

I discovered a truly annoying workaround, which was to use the Move to in the File dropdown menu.

Was drag and drop eliminated?

Thank you
