How does copy paste work

Question

Hi I am trying to make a clipboard program to copy and paste files like TeraCopy. I want to know how can I write the code to copy and paste manually instead of calling on the Windows procedure to do so in C#? Any code links would be very helpful. Thanks.

In all these cases the Clipboard class is called and the Windows procedure is used for copying. I want to know how can I do it manually instead of using the built in classes.
