Administrator Tarun Posted May 22, 2006 Administrator Share Posted May 22, 2006 Checked a few things and here's what I've found: Unable to copy and paste If you ever find that you are unable to copy and paste in the Windows Explorer, open the Control Panel. Select the Internet Options applet and click on the Security tab. Then click on Custom Setting, find the option "Drag and copy or paste" and ensure that it is enabled. It can also be caused by viruses/worms, so you may wish to scan as well. :wish: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
