Sharepoint online move/copy to functions disappeared
We recently made changes to folder/doc/etc. locations on our Sharepoint without a problem. However, when I went to make a change today, the "copy to" and "move" options have disappeared. This occurred with site owner permissions and accessing via Sharepoint Online. The options do not appear at any level of the Sharepoint. Any ideas on how/why this happened and how to fix it?
tharvey I had a user call with the same issue this morning. After doing a little digging, I realized she was trying to move documents in a Document Library web part, instead of within the Document Library itself. Switching over to the actual Document Library brought back to Move/Copy buttons.

What does this mean? What does it mean to be in the document library "web part" instead of the document library itself? How to I get to the document library?
madalayne some how I got the options to appear when I clicked See All
- I had almost the same scenario, only thing it was not present in Classic view, and got confirmation that it is built like that, not sure if you are also looking at classic view ?

We had to check this box: " Prevent users from running custom script":
The custom script setting the SharePoint Online admin center
