What are you using to transfer the files and do you see any type of error when you try to do so?

It has happened to me several times here and with other hosts.
It's rather annoying that one day it works and the next it won't.
Can't recall if I ever come up with a fix.

Try using Cntrl+C and Cntrl+V and it should work.
Not sure why right clicking is intermittent.
