Hello,

I was hoping someone else has/is experiencing this same issue as me, but have been unable to find a situation that matches it exactly.

The problem is that whenever I have any browser open, IE, Chrome, Firefox, etc... the Cut & Paste, Copy & Paste function does not work correctly in Excel 2010.

When I Cut or Copy the blinking marquee around my selection briefly appears and then disappears. When I try to paste, I only have two options under the paste special function: Unicode Text and Text, same with cut and paste, however, the text doesn't actually cut, it only copies.

As soon as I close down any of the mentioned browsers, the full functionality of the cut/copy & paste functions are restored, no need to restart excel.

I need to have open a browser most of the time for work as our system is web based, so closing and re-opening is more than just an annoyance.

Yes, that was exactly the fix I was looking for. I had installed Skype for a video conference. I uninstalled "click to call" and now, no issues!

Thank You!
