Re: Win 10 copy paste
What are you trying to share via the clipboard? Because you have to remember that copy/paste only works for text and simple graphics. It doesn't work with files or folders for example. If that's not the case, please read: Minimum information needed for assistance.

Well, first of all you can't copy an .EXE file. Or any file for that matter.
Second, read carefully Chapter 4.3 Shared folders of the User Manual. I believe that this is what you're looking for...
