For some reason in the last week, copying and pasting just stops working all of a sudden. If I restart my computer's file manager (Windows Explorer), things work again, but I don't know why. Aside from updating Windows and not installing anything new or making any changes myself...

It feels like the operating system could be broken if the problem disappears after restarting. You should check if your motherboard needs new BIOS upgrades and then look for any software updates on the OS too.
