    Having a situation when I try to copy and past.

    So I highlight the part I want to C&P - then I push "Control" & "C" - but when I do that
    It deletes what I have highlighted - but leaves a "C".
    So what in carnation is going on?

    Are you pressing and holding the Ctrl key first?

    I'm no expert, but my guess would be a faulty Ctrl key, dirty keyboard, or some such problem. Do you have another keyboard to try?

    Likely faulty control key. Can get a working keyboard from Goodwill or other thrift stores for $2.
