I try to import an fbx file which I have done many times before. Now suddenly it is locked to world origin so I can't move it. It is getting deformed when I try to move it because it is locked there.
The object is an animation figure from Mixamo. I am using Blender 2.81. I have even tried to restore factory settings, it won't help either.
A few things you could do to fix this:
1) set the origin of the fbx file you imported to it's own geometry.
You can do this by going to object > transform > origin to geometry in object mode with the object selected.
2) you can set the object to be it's own user.
This is a fix for an error caused by linking objects from other scenes. Somehow your object might have a similar response, so setting it to have it's own user may help.
You can do that by going to object > make single user > object. Or if it has a material or data then object > make single user > object & data & materials & tex.
