Go to Start>Help and Support. In the search field, type "copy and paste" (without the quotes), press the Enter key (or click on the tiny magnifying glass).
There will be a number of explanations listed there, depending on what you want to copy and paste...files, folders, text, pictures, etc.
The copied item or items are stored on the clipboard. Windows stores only one copied item at a time so when you copy something else, it replaces what was on the clipboard. The clipboard is erased when the computer is shut down.
