URGENT: How to search and copy (not move) found messages to new folder?

I have to search for key words in folders with 500-1,000 emails each. Then I need to copy the resulting emails to a new folder where I can review them later for submission in a legal discovery request.

I seems like this used to be straightforward. I'd search, get a list of found emails, and I could then just copy them to a new folder. When I just tried this, everything seemed to have changed. My options are now to Move the found emails to a different folder or to Save as Search Folder, which doesn't help me at all.

If I move the emails to a new folder, I have lost the integrity of my original folder.

Please advise? I find it hard to believe that there is no longer any way to copy over search results.

If you enter text in the Quick Filter Bar, buttons appear to filter by Subject, Body etc., and the results can be copied by right-clicking, Copy To. See picture.

Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately, my search is much too complicated for a quick filter. I have do an "or" search for 12+ possible key words in the From field of my Inbox and subfolders, and then again separately in the "to" field on my Sent folder and subfolders.
