Can no longer copy and paste or drag and drop files in Windows 7
I noticed this just the other day when I tried to retrieve photos and mov files off of my camera and onto my desktop. The copy and paste function would not work. The photos would highlight when selected, but when I went to paste them anywhere, nothing would happen. I then tried to move photos that were on my computer already and neither cut/paste or drag/drop would move the photos to a different location. I then tried to cut and paste a word doc into a new location and that wouldnt work either. I can cut and paste text within a word doc if that is relevant or not. I did a virus scan, tried a system restore point, and ran the sfc? scannow diagnostic which came up fine. I know very little about how computers work so can you give me some ideas on what to try to fix this problem. Its a Windows 7 is all I know. Thank you!
