If your question remains unanswered, did you try my suggestion above?

It may also be the Dock preferences or even Finder Preferences that are the culprit.


From your Finder "Go" menu > "Go to folder" then copy & paste this file path:

~/Library/Preferences

Click Go.

Find and delete:

com.apple.dock.plist

com.apple.finder.plist

Then restart or log out and back in.

I'm unable to "Drag" or remove items in Dock in macOS Mojave on my 2018 15" MacBook Pro. I've been using Main Frame Dumb Terminals since the late 1970s, DOS PCs mid 1980s, Windows PCs 1989, MACs since 2011. My 13" 2011 MacBook Air and 2011 Mac Mini, I was able to Drag items to rearrange them, or remove them from the Dock. I have read the help files including the ones recommended above, browsed the Apple Support site, the MacBook Pro Essentials E-Book, and the macOS User Guide. I'm still unable to "Drag" or remove items in Dock in macOS Mojave on my 2018 15" MacBook Pro.
