ubcdwin4 cd rom - file explorer tools

hi,
im trying to copy files off a system with a virus on the os to a flash drive.
thus, ive booted the ubcdwin4 cd rom, went to file applications, used the explorer to see the files..

and i see the flash drive, i can click and explore the flash drive, i can see the hard drive, when i try to copy the my docs folder to the flash drive, it doesnt do it!
i tried to highlight and 'copy to folder' still  no go...

i remember in the past i was able to copy files off a bad drive easily in ubcdwin4, now for some reason when i do copy/paste, it doesnt actually do it.

a. which utility/program/tool in ubcdwin4 should i be using for this.

also, its not letting me create a new folder on the flash drive, as i thought id copy and paste asll ther indiv files into the new folder since the folder copy/paste wasnt working.
thanks

See if you have volko commander or any ( commander ) type software installed as a file / explorer.

Also you can add in better file  managers if needed.,or run one manually from the flash drive

 I hope this helps !
