THANK YOU!!!

You really should consider sending out an info blast somehow (through a CC update window maybe) fixes like these so we don't have to search for them?!?! I posted about this problem and was by luck I came across this thread. So when there is a solution it can get to your customers immediately?

Details on the cause of the issue can be found here - https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects-beta/can-t-copy-paste-text-from-other-apps-into-after-effects/td-p/12071186/page/2#M1105

In short, do not launch AE by double-clicking on an AEP. In other words, start AE on its own. Then open an AEP and things should work as expected.
