I updated to version 25.2 and now when i go to drag and drop a clip onto the timeline, the cursor will just have a closed fist without dropping anything into the timeline. I have updated the Media Encoder also and have restarted my computer and application multiple times.

Correct answer R Neil Haugen

That would happen when you don't have the Source and Track target options set on the timeline header block. Look that up.

Did you try a different clip, maybe one you've used in a different project  before, so you know it works.

F3 mentioned additional info: Info needed for a bug / tech support

Can you provide a bit more info, I am not sure exactly what your trying to do...

 

I have, however, tried to drag a clip from file explorer onto the timeline, and PP imported the video, and created a new sequence with the clip I dragged on to it...

 

I have also dragged a clip from the project window, to a blank timeline window, and a sequence was created for me.

 

I am using Windows 11 Pro for Workstations and RTX 3090  - I cant tell from your post what OS your using (maybe a  mac as I don't ever recall seeing a 'fist' in windows 11 before.

 

Basically,  I think we will need more info from you to assist, such as your OS, GPU, Software Versions (OS/video), and what format the video is (MPG/MOV/RED) etc....  then you might have a chance at some additional assistance with the question.
