  2. copy and paste

    Windows standard works in most places:

    Select first item in a list (one click)

    For contiguous list selection:

    Hold the Shift key down, click on the last item in a list

    For non-contiguous list selection:

    Hold the Ctrl key down, click on each item you want to save

    With selected items shown, simply hold the Ctrl key down and press the c key

    These steps will save what you have selected to the Windows clipboard

    You can then paste what is on the clipboard (not-selectively) in most places by simply placing the cursor where you want the copy to be, then hold down the Ctrl key and press v

    Keyboard acts like i'm holding down CTRL key!

    Hello! Something happens to my keyboard which is very annoying!

    Somehow, and don't now how, the CTRL key behaves as it is hold, then changes all the other key functions, like Esc key behaves as Win key (actually I use this sequence to figure out, if the CRTL key is locked).

    How do I deactivate this function? Simple, I just double press on CTRL key.
    However, that annoying function turns on randomly! I have this behave for at least 2 years and cannot find a solution to avoid that "hold CTRL"?! I switched off all ease functions. I use two languages configurations, English and Portuguese over European
    Portuguese QWERTY keyboard.

    I have searched undreds times for a solution, but until now nothing clear :-(

    Thanks,

    R.

    Java.nio.file - Copying files

    You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
    You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
