How to Add Copy, Paste and Delete Buttons to Windows 7 Explorer toolbar


Goto Run and type regedit and click OK.
Then navigate to the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderTypes\{5c4f28b5-f869-4e84-8e60-f11db97c5cc7}
Right click on the registry key click on Permissions.
In the Permissions box, under its sole security tab, highlight your own Administrators account and then check the box under Full Control – Allow.
Click Apply > OK.
Open the Permissions windows again and click on Advanced button instead, and click on the Owner tab.
Change owner to your Name.
Click Apply > OK.
NOW again in the Permissions box, under its sole security tab, highlight your own Administrators account and then check the box under Full Control – Allow. Click Apply > OK.
In the right side pane, right click > New > Key.
Give the Name for subkey as TasksItemsSelected and give it a value:
Windows.Copy; Windows.Paste; Windows.Delete;

These values correspond to the buttons Copy, Paste, and Delete.
Now restart or refresh Windows Explorer and select any file.
 
You can see these options now!
