Ctrl-C, Ctrl-X and Ctrl-V have other meanings in Vim... _unless_ you
have the infamous mswin.vim getting in the way.
In Normal mode:
Ctrl-C is Break or Interrupt, mswin remaps it to Copy.
Ctrl-V is Block Visual, mswin remaps it to Paste
Ctrl-X is Decrement Number, mswin remaps it to Cut...
In Insert mode:
Ctrl-C is Break out of Insert mode, go to Normal mode without triggering
the InsertLeave event
Ctrl-V is Literalize (key, or decimal, octal, hex or Unicode value)
Ctrl-X is Autocomplete (in various ways depending on what comes after)
...and, again, mswin breaks these, replacing them by Copy, Paste and Cut.
Best regards,
Tony.
