I have a ton of expansions from a variety of sources and have never had issues loading them via the normal "drag & drop" method described here: https://www.mpc-tutor.com/mpc-expansion ... ete-guide/

Recently though, this method has completely stopped working and I am unable to load ANY new XPNs. I drag them, the cursor shows the "plus/add" sign, but I don't get an import dialog and nothing is added in the Expansion Browser column. I've uninstalled/reinstalled the MPC software (Win 10 64bit) several times with no change, made my own XPNs, etc. with zero luck.

Anyone else experience this? Any tips?

edit - I put this in the Live/X/One sub forum, feel free to move it if it belongs somewhere else

The last time this happened to me, the problem was when I was building my Expansions, I had fumbled the spelling of the Expansion Title and the Identifier name (the name of your Expansion should be spelled exactly the same where myKitName goes, using a dash in place of spaces).

Are you sure you didn't fumble that or something similar when you built your Expansion?
