      After copying a Folder, I notice that none of the jobs within it can be launched (see "copied_folder_page.png" snapshot). Notice that we have a Test1 job, but there is no "Build Now" button to launch it.

      As we can see in the snapshot "job_page.png", the project seems to be enabled (i.e. we still have a button to disable it), but, at the same time, the "Build Now" button in the left menu is gone.

      The only workaround for this is disabling the job and enabling it again.

          Any job you copy is disabled (or rather, not buildable) by default. You usually don't recognize it because the form opens and you generally change things, and upon Saving the job becomes buildable.

          Thanks! It was confusing to me, but I understand now that it has been implemented this way to prevent accidental runs...

          Specifically to prevent scheduled triggers from running until after you have verified that the new version of the job is actually right.
