    Cut, copy, rename, share, delete (presumably the most common options)

    But anyway, ctrl-x, ctrl-c, ctrl-v ftw!

      Hopefully it's copying the directory path to get to the file, very useful if you create shortcuts to network locations, e.g. you might have a file called "CV.docx" in a folder, which you have called "OwlHoot1" in the link, or as a shortcut Y:\OwlHoot1.
      But the actual path is \\Tawny1\root\Barn\LongEared\OwlPorn\MyDocs\CV.doc x

      Copying the path is giving the actual location and not just the file, or the shortcut name you gave the location.
