PS CS6 How to drag a layer into another PSD file at-size?

I have a file A that had been previously cropped with DELETE CROPPED PIXELS UNCHECKED

When i drag a layer from file A (where the layer "appears" correctly sized),

the resulting layer in file B has the original pre-cropped size (i.e., the cropped pixels "reappear")


how can i set a mode for DRAG LAYER (or otherwise achieve) to be the cropped-size (= IMAGE SIZE ) from file A

and not have it "restore" the cropped off pixels on the edges?

i'd rather not re crop all the "A" files with DELETE CROPPED PIXELS.

 

Try drag and dropping the image in a web browser.
After the browser opens the image, right click and save the image.
Then try opening it in Photoshop.

Another method:
You said that you can open it in paint.NET, you can open the image in paint.NET and do save as...and save it as a new file.
Then try opening that new file in Photoshop.

If both short methods can't aid you, that denotes your .psd file is severely damaged and you need more different solutions, you may see them below
