| | Ctrl + C does not copy text Recently, Ctrl + C does not copy text into the clipboard although right-clicking and selecting Copy still works. This persisted even after a reboot. Also, Clipboard Viewer does not work at all (e.g.. Ctrl + C twice). How do I restore these functions? (Vista x64 SP1, Office 2007) Thank you for your help. |

| | Re: Ctrl + C does not copy text Ctrl + C is handled by each program. It is not a system hotkey.

| Vista Home Premium X64 | Re: Ctrl + C does not copy text Hiya, Sorry, I'd forgotten I posted this! I've actually found the problem - it was something to do with my keyboard. Don't ask what though as I haven't a clue! CTRL works, C is fine, V is fine, yet when you put them together... I've swapped the keyboard for one on my spare PC, all sorted  Thanks anyway! Stu. |
