"edit" drop down box the cut copy paste function is inactive (you can see the words, cut copy paste, but it is gray in color - not functioning) - as opposed to bold print when it does function
I have been most the day trying to solve these issues and nothing has worked. Basically I moved house couple of weeks ago and just go round to plugging my computer in and these are the issues I am having, whether they are all related I wouldn't know...
1.I can't copy and paste files , whether it's by mouse or keyboard. It seems to work on text by not files.When I try to copy and paste files it makes the noise it doe's like if you were to press an incorrect key .
2.I can't move files from one fold to another or on to my desktop.
3.I can't seem to view any pictures in windows photo viewer it just says loading all the time.
4.I went on to account settings to see if it was to do with administrative properties but I am classed as the admin anyway and even when I click on create a new user or manage user settings (anything with the admin symbol near the option) it just doe's nothing.I Have rebooted,system restored and lots of other things that people have suggested by nothing works , even on safe mode it doe's the same and on hidden admin that i unlocked. I really am stuck. I have just done a sfc /scannow and it says it found corrupted files but couldn't fix them.

I'm on windows 7 i recently added cut copy paste to my menu bar and now it is inactivated in my "File" drop down box How can I re-activate these functions
I have discovered that I have lost my Copy/Cut and Paste function. This is copying/cutting from anywhere (Word, the internet, iTunes or any other text content) to anywhere. I don't know how it hapened but would grateful for some easy to follow instructions on getting it back please? I have Windows 7 and it has always worked up 'til about a week ago. I have restored the PC from an earlier checkpoint without success.
I've been unable to copy and paste or drag and drop files in Windows explorer for a few weeks. The problem is as far as I can tell limited to copying and moving files. These functions work just fine in other programs.
I can copy and paste text just fine, and I can drag a file from a .rar archive to the desktop. I can however NOT drag and drop files from the desktop to a folder.
If I try to copy and paste using Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V or the right click menu all I get is some noise from the hard drive and no other reaction.
EDIT: Copying and pasting files works in safe mode.

I have one internal drive with 1 TB. The data there is very important to me , so I bought External removable drive for backup. Now, I want to copy the data from one drive to the second drive but I have to be sure I have a perfect copy of the data. The data is mostly songs movies and documents. I'm using windows 7.
My question is this:
1.If I'll transfer the data through windows 7 by copy and paste, I could be sure i have a perfect copy? 2.There are tools for comparison Between the original data to the data that was copied?
I've got a dell ispiron n5110 lap top , win7 home premium, 640 hard drive, 6gigs ram and I can't get it to copy and paste. Is there something I have to turn on or activate or download? I'm in the dark.
One of our employees is unable to copy/paste from our terminal server in Europe to her local machine anymore, and I'm trying to figure out the problem. I've already made sure that the Clipboard is checked in the RDP connection properties. I tried connecting as her on my machine, and the same thing happens. If I log out and then reconnect as me, copy/paste works. Should I have the remote admin take a look at his policy?
I'm not sure if this is the right section but anyway, I'm wondering if its possible to turn drag/drop into cut.For example: when I have to folders open next to each other, and I select a bunch of files from the left folder, and I drag / drop them to the right folder, it copies the files.
Alright just within the past week Ive been having trouble copying & pasting. (I've also tried ctrl c & ctrl v). It does work if I keep at it and try it several times. It never seems to work the first try I have to copy something like 10+ times, then the paste will work.
If I copy-paste some folders and files, there are just sooo many confirmation-dialogs for overwriting files and folders. This makes me nuts as I have to do loads of this each day.In the glorious days of XP there was just the simple:"do you want to overwrite this?"[yes] [no]So with only one click for confirmation. Now it is often 6 click for exactly the same task. #fail..How to get windows 7 to use a single confirmation dialog for this?
Periodically, for reasons I cannot figure out and for which I have found no solution, my copy/paste ceases to function. Nothing I do seems to fix it, deleting cache, etc. So eventually, out of frustration I give up but it interrupts my productivity of course. Some time later in the future I find it is working again but i do not know how/why it starts or stops and it is most vexing and inconvenient.
It seems to happen periodically whether I am using my Windows 7 or my Mac Snow Leopard? I right click, select copy right click again select paste and ZIP, NADA? I will be forever grateful or at least for a very long time!
Have been having problems within Windows 7 trying to copy and pate.However, I have found a solution.If you are copying from the web to Microsoft Word:1. Open a NEW word document2. Click on Edit in the Menu(You will see that the copy and past options are NOT availableSO3. Type the date4. Now click on edit and you will see that the paste and Paste Special options are now available.. Go to the data which you want to copy and past6. Highlight the information you want to copy and paste7. Click "copy"8. Go back to the NEW word document you previously opened9. Now click pasteIT WOULD APPEAR THAT A NEW WORD DOCUMENT THAT HASEN'T GOT ANY DATA IN IT IS NOT ABLE TO COPY AND PASTE.BY SIMPLY PUTING THE DATE IN THE NEW DOCUMENT, YOU HAVE MADE IT "LIVE" AND THEREFORE IT CAN NOW PERFORM THE COPY AND PASTE FUNCTION.It's taken me some time to fathom this one out but (as an ex IT Lecturer) I was determined to solve the problem.
I play on ISketch and want to put up an icon that I accidentally deleted.I have had it up there for over a year and do remember it took me a long time to get it up but cant remember how I did it. I can copy but when it comes to Ctrl V it just types a v, thats left click.Right click is Restart, Pause, Play,Fastforward etc.
I am unable to copy and paste with Windows 7. I am aware that I cannot post into c: , but believe I should be able to place my files anywhere else I want! At present, the only way I can put something where I want it is to copy it anot an USB dongle, and then drag it back to where I really want it.This doesn't always work, either. I suspect it may be something to do with the 'orrible UAC?
In our company i made a securities that the employee could na install any apps etc... this is my setup... i go to group policy editor then user configuration/administrative template/system/run only specified windows application.I enable the run only specified windows application with the apps that i want to run in that computer.

I'm wondering if there is a solution to this problem in IE8.I have a user who accesses a bill payment website system, she then wants to copy and paste the text conformation for record purposes. This use to work find until the user pc was upgraded to Win7 and IE8. We have tried several options with settings and nothing has worked so far. I notice a quick Google search seems to indicate others have had this same type of issues with IE 8 as well.I can't seem to locate a reason why it's not working.

I just bought a new Dell Inspiron560 , windows 7, and the copy and paste will not work, in my old pc windows XP, I could copy and paste all the graphics I uploaded to Image Cave with no problem, now the copy and paste buttons arent even highlighted when I try?
I have this issue resolved but I still wonder why it always resets to the wrong way.I always have to click on the set mode to "What you see is what you get".This wan't true until a few months ago.This isn't a big issue now that I know what to do (it drove my crazy for a while) but I'm curious as to whether there is a way to set the default to "What you see is what you get".
