I suspect the problem is something like this: When you drag and drop a file name from, say, a Word document, you are dropping (pasting) a character string. When you drag and drop a file name from File Explorer you are dropping the FILE ITSELF, not just the name string.
Can you right-click the file, select ‘Properties’, select the file name at the top of the general tab, and drag/drop that? e.g., “Roster.txt”.
