I have always been able to Select and Copy parts of a web page or an essay or an e-mail and then Paste it on WORD to print or send on to someone else. Now I can Select (highlight) and copy, but I can't paste it anywhere: word, notepad, wordpad,paint, etc. The "paste" function on my edit menu is grayed out, and replaced by clipboard. Clicking on the clipboard brings up a window saying nothing is on it.
What has happened? What can I do to get back my old copy and paste function? HELP!
Answer Any time something weird like this happens to a computer, the first thing I think of is a virus or malware. You should check your computer for both. Read this article, it should help:
