Can't copy-paste files/folders !!!!!!!!

[Guest]

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,

The following article may apply. I know that you said you are running
Windows 2000 Pro, but the principle is the same. You stated that it
happened after upgrading IE. It sounds like IE was damaged during the
upgrade process.

Cannot Drag or Copy and Paste File

Don't use the steps in this article to repair IE though. You may want to
download IE 6.0 and try to reinstall it.
