Write a random string into a search field in your browser app, like HelloTest:12345 - make sure the letters before the colon are mixed upper case 2. Cut out that whole string and paste...

    So I switched macOS (Big Sur - MacBook Air M1) after being a Windows Fan since MS-DOS - I am happy with the decision except for a small issue. Unlike in Windows I cannot cut and paste files (move). Has anyone got a solution for this?
