Cut and paste...

Guest

Hello to you all,
I'm posting on this community since I didn't got any positive answer in
France.
My problem is as follows:
Right after booting on Vista, if I cut a file to paste it somewhere else,
there is no action whatsoever. If I click "paste" again, then it pastes.
The same happens with the "extract" command. On the first instance, nothing
happens and the extracted folder is empty; if I click on "extract" again, the
extracted files appear in the extracted folder.
Last, if I use the command "move to" or "copy in", then the explorer cease
to work. If I do it again, then everythings runs nicely and the files are
moved to destination.
In summary, on a first instance after having started Vista, it is not
possible to paste; by redoing the same command "paste" or similar "extract,
move to, an so on) it works finely till the end of the session.
Can someone help?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my broken English.

Hi Mélotte,

Right-click problems are usually caused by third-party shell extensions. Try "Method 2" in this article, ignoring the page title:

Of course the solution comes with no guarantees that it would solve the issue.
