Can't Drag 'n Drop in Elements 15

Have always been able DnD photos from Elements versions into Word docs, but after installing Elements 15 (on a W-10 OS system), the file name and path are what's copied, not the image itself. Upgraded from E 13.  DnD STILL WORKS in in E13!

Hi Jeff,

We tried the same at our end and it is working fine on WIN10.

I would recommend you to restart your system to see if resolves the problem.

After this, if the problem persist, try uninstall and re-install of PSE15.

Thanks,

I have restarted - several times - and uninstalled and reinstalled the program with no change in behavior.  When I drag n drop from the PSE 15 catalog, the file path and name are what is inserted into the Word document.  If I drag from the PSE 13 catalog (now called catalog 2), the image itself is what is copied, just as intended.  I appreciate any further assistance you can provide.
