After today's Lightroom update copy/paste settings from one image to another doesn't work correctly at my Lightroom. It just pastes some random settings, with always contrast minus 30 something. Color temperature - different as well. Some other settings such as curve copy fine. Checked copy preferences - all checkboxes are selected. Has anyone experienced same after updating?

If you mean auto setting in Lightroom, then no, I don't use it. Here are pictures attached, where is 1 - picture I copy settings from, 2 - picture I copy settings to (all default), 3 - result. What you are right about, and that's what I've just noticed, that it indeed looks like Auto setting switched on. If I try to apply Auto setting on this particular photo it gives quite the same result. But the fact is I never used auto setting neither I didn't apply it on any photo intentionally.

Thank you for the info.

Is the image from which you are copying using an auto-White Balance or Auto (exposure and color)? 

Can you show me a screen grab of your Light panel for the copied image and a before and after of your Light Panel for the pasted image?
