Vista - Copy and paste not working

Hi

I have Vista Ultimate, when I select files in a folder then copy and paste
them to a different folder, NOTHING happens.

When I drag and drop them it works, any ideas how I can fix this?

thanks

Daniel

Do you use right-click: copy or cut, and paste, or edit?

Reboot and try again. Your clip board may be stuffed.

Rebooting did not fix it, the problem has been there since I formatted and
reinstalled Vista a couple of weeks ago.

Had this issue in XP - did as a poster said in 'Copy and paste not
working' (http://www.howtofixcomputers.com/bb/ftopic140408.html)
(couldn't post there because it was in their older forum) - I exited out
of a couple of Terminal Services windows I was in and could copy/paste
again. Don't know if this might apply to someone else reading this
thread in the future.
