Copying and moving files and folders
Important
The clipboard stores
whatever you cut or
copy until you cut or
copy again. Then the
clipboard contains the
new information only.
Therefore, you can
paste copies of a file or
folder into more than
one place, but as soon
as you copy or cut a
different file or folder,
the original file or
folder is deleted from
the clipboard.
