How do I enable copy and paste in the new outlook?

I am not able to directly copy any documents from Explorer and then go to the email that I am working on to paste onto the emial. Before with the Old Outlook I was able to to do this easily but the New Outlook requires me to go to the "paper clip" Icon above then search thru the Explorer to find the file then the specific documents(which couple be hundred documents); this process takes sometime 5 miniuets to find the exact document to copy and paste. I need to do it the Old Outlook ways or "Classic" format so that I can do just the cut and paste as mentioned earlier of this email. Pleas advise ASAP thanks.

    Like all the 65 responses to this question, you can't. Some "genius" at Microsoft decided cut and paste worked too well so now they've made it more difficult.

    I've been using Caps On, ctrl, V to paste. Pain the the butt but it works.

    The person who suggested the following was spot on!

    With caps on, hit control v to paste what you’ve copied.

    Works like a charm.
