Can't copy-paste files/folders
I don't know why....Last night i did upgrading my IE5 to
IE6 on my win2000 pro box. After restart, I can't copy
paste my files (!).
I logged on with administrator account, still can't copy
paste. The wierd thing is :
# I can copy paste from another computer.
The win2000 pro box has a shared folder and I connected
into it from another computer with my account. And I do
can copy paste !
# I can copy paste with using command prompt.

But everytime I use the right click or by click edit copy-
paste...nothing happen. The file(s) or folder(s)not copied.
"The additional wierd things" :
- I can make a file and or folder by right clicking cursor
and choose NEW --> whatever.
- I still can change file content such as Word document.

So, I think it is clear that it has nothing to do with the
security or read-write previlleges thing.
So...WHAT HAPPEN ??? AND HOW TO FIX IT ???


cheers,

dizzy

Re: Can't copy-paste files/folders
maybe is the profile corrupted.  Try to use some other profile, logged in
and try whether it can copy and paste.

Cheers.

Re: Re: Can't copy-paste files/folders
I am having the exact same problem. Except with Windows Small Business Server 2000. Two of them actually. Separate servers, on separate networks with 2 completely separate clients.

Only thing in common with the two servers though, is that they both had a rimary hard drive mirror failure, where we had to replace the HDD and recreate the mirror.

We cannot copy / cut and paste in Windows. Either using Explorer or My Computer. We can, however, copy using DOS and as dizzy said, we can also copy when connecting to a shared folder from a workstation.
