Copy/paste files does not work, but cut/paste works fine !?
On a laptop I cannot copy/paste files anymore.
But cut/paste works fine. Checkdisk and SFC /scannow do not find errors. System restore does not work (no restore points). Anyone an idea? Thanks for helping! -- Carpe Diem "Make things as simple as possible, but not simpler" (Albert Einstein). |

Thanks for helping! How are you copying and how are you pasting? This could be a keyboard issue but have you tried by first high-lighting the text, then pressing CTRL+C, then Pressing CTRL+V. OK the above method uses your keyboard keys but if they are not working then try this: High-Light the text; Edit Copy Edit Paste this avoids using keyboard keys. Also, if you have updated your machine with some patches then RESTART might resolve itself. Shutting Down and Switching On is not the same as ReStart which I am sure you are aware of this subtle difference.
