Resolution Note (2020.2.X):
Create material Preset is meant to work with materials used in the TMP package and not supported for generic materials. Moreover the default materials do not reside in the project folder and cannot be duplicated. In the future update of TMP the issue would be fixed and a warning would be thrown to the user saying the it is not supported to create a preset of materials that are not in the project
