I have been using Elements 14 for a number of years and have always just dragged pictures from the organiser into Microsoft word when I needed to. Having recently upgraded to Elements 2019 now when I do this all I get is the text of the file path not the picture.
As an alternative I have tried copy and paste but the paste of the image takes between 30s and 55s which is an inordinate amount of time.
Dragging images into Word from file explorer works as normal and is instantaneous.
Please could someone let me know how I can get drag and drop from organiser working again?

I’ve never used that method personally. If you keep the info panel open on the right of organizer, simply click on location for your selected photo. It will open in explorer, already pre-selected and ready to drag into a word document.
