Could not place .asl because no parser or file format can open the file.

I seem to continue running into issues when trying to load presets. 

I've downloaded a number of presets from reputable sources but every time I try to load them, I run into some sort of error. Most recently is the error mentioned in the subject.

• I've tried going to Edit>Presets>Preset Manager but the only dropdowns I get are Contours and Tools. 
• I've tried dragging the file over and the error above is shown. 
• I've also tried to move the files over to the Preset folders in the Adobe library folder and that does not seem to do the trick. 

Please help.

Found a somewhat related post that suggested I drag the file into the app icon, which seems to do the trick!
