Vista - Cannot move copy paste in Windows Explorer

Cannot move copy paste in Windows Explorer

I cannot move, copy or paste files or folders within Windows Explorer or another file management program called xplorer2. I am able to delete and write to a folder though and I can copy and paste between programs. I have Windows Vista x64.

I have run both virus and anti-spyware scans, run System File Checker, gone into safe mode and looked all over the web; but no change and no answers. I hate to have to reformat; that takes me many hours, days, and weeks of work. I have been able, however, to use a syncing program called SmartSync which was able to copy and move the folders but is not as quick and easy for quick and simple moves.

Any help would be appreciated.
