Unknown "Copy" shows up on Screen #2 that I can't get rid of
What is this? How do I get rid of it?

I have dual screens running on Windows 111. Yesterday, the word "Copy” with what appears to be an abbreviated jpeg file below it, showed up only on the upper right quadrant of my #2 display. It looks as though I tried to copy a jpeg photo of a census report I was working on and accidentally copied it to my #2 display.
I cannot move it. I cannot delete it. It is not a shortcut. If I click on it – nothing happens. If I right-click on it. A drop-down menu appears. None of the options in the drop-down menu seem to work. (The options do not include delete.) If I open a WORD document to work on, the “Copy” seems to appear on top of the WORD document.

Since it’s appearing over your Word document and cannot be deleted, it's likely a visual glitch rather than an actual file or shortcut.

I have the same thing. Can't move it, delete it, click on it.
