  1. Copy file from link pasted in start menu search?


    If I paste a network file link into the start menu in Windows 7, I am able to copy the file onto my pc. How do I accomplish this in Windows 10?

    I can't drag and drop the file when I click on it and there is no menu options to do anything, that I see, to the file except for opening it?

    Thank you

    :)
