Carol, If you arrowed to the file, it may already have been selected. I wonder if Narrator may be incorrectly reporting the selection. What happens if you arrow to the file you want, do not press PSACE, do the CONTROL-C and paste? I don't know if one can assume anything if Narrator remains silent when you press CONTROL-C.

Honest, I wouldn't joke about this one, grin. I tried to copy and paste a file to my new computer from an external drive. I selected the by pressing spacebar. Narrator said selected. I did ctrl-c and Narrator said nothing. OK, I thought maybe I didn't do it correctly. So, I deselected the file and did the same thing. Thinking it may just not speak, I pasted it to the new drive. Nothing happened. I looked for the edit commands and did not find them. So, where do they hide?

I tried to copy one last night to the Win10 pc. It still is using Narrator. I tried using control-c to copy the file, but it would not copy. Also, I could not find it on the ribbon. Where does one find editing commands?
