OK thank you. I recall seeing something about a timeline issue when dragging from the playlist but that doesn’t seem to be your only trigger.
Did this start when you upgraded to a newer version? I’m guessing it hasn’t always been the case based on your original post. The first thing to do - if you haven’t already - is follow the below re-installation process to the letter (including manual folder deletion and registry cleaning).
If that doesn’t work, try reverting to a previous version, at least for diagnostic purposes to see if the problem still exists. 22.09.23 seemed quite stable, but if you remember a version that gave no trouble use that.
