Windows 10: copy paste shortcuts not working

Hey,

Recently my copy paste shortcuts stopped working, but only on my desktop and in the file explorer. In all other apps they are still working and when I rightclick on a file, then I can copy it manually and it is working. But the shprtcuts doesnt even show up right next to the options, like they did before. I dont know what I did, so that it isnt working anymore.

Hope you can help me, Thanks.

E71x copy/paste keyboard shortcuts?

OK, here's what I get for those key combos:

• fn, then chr = Select Symbol
• fn + chr = Select Symbol
• mark text, then fn + chr + X = Select Symbol
