Contextual Menus missing cut, copy, paste keyboard shortcuts

I think you are referring to the contextual menu you can bring up when you select a file in Finder and click on it to edit the file name. There are no associated keyboard shortcuts there in Tahoe, nor are there in Sequoia.

Perhaps they were there in Sonoma or before.

Regardless, when editing a file name in Finder in both Tahoe and Sequoia, the Command-C and Command-V shortcuts work for copy/paste in spite of their absence from the contextual menu.

Works fine for me.

1) select a word with the cursor:

2) press Command-X, the word is cut

3) confirm it was on the Clipboard by pasting into the document

I suspect there is either something about your settings or there's a conflict with a 3rd party extension on your system. The latter can be tested in Safe Mode, which disables 3rd party extensions and performs some system cleanup.

You can also try adding a new user account and see if the issue occurs there:

Sorry, not seeing the issue you describe. It is true that the shortcuts are not shown next to the commands in the contextual menu in Tahoe, nor are they in Sequoia. But the keyboard shortcuts work fine for editing a file name in Preview and TextExit, as they do in Finder.

Here is TextEdit, I copied the text of your post and pasted it into the body of a new file, then into the title field with Command-V after clicking it. I then secondary-clicked the new (very long) file name, you can see the fill paragraph pasted into the title field:

In that case, I'm at a loss short of suggesting to reinstall macOS (just the OS, without deleting your data). My Mac running Tahoe behaves just like my Mac running Sequoia, and is showing what I'd consider normal behavior (cut/copy/paste work to edit file names).
