I cannot highlight, right click copy and paste.....

Hi Heather,

Aside from the couple of updates installed, there could be other changes performed on your computer that may have caused the copy and paste function to not work properly.

For us to properly sort out this problem, we would like to verify the following:

• Are you using the mouse to highlight, right click, copy, and paste?
• Are you experiencing the same issue when accessing a different website?
• Have you tried to use the Ctrl+C and Ctrl+ V functions?

In the meantime, try to completely shutdown your PC,then turn it back on and observe if the same issue persists.

Looking forward to your reply.

Regards.
