I'm having these same problems, on top of all the other problems I've been having.

I've tried everything listed here, including removing all adobe software with the Adobe cleaner tool. Nothing helps.

This software just keeps getting worse and worse every year.

THere is a list with third party software that interferes with Illustrator. Do you run any of that?

In preferences - clipboard you can try and deselect all the options there.

Hello @Hugo29780694gsh7,

We understand that encountering technical issues can be frustrating. Would you mind trying to run Illustrator under Safe Mode (Windows / macOS) and checking if it helps? Also, try running Illustrator under a different administrator account (Windows / macOS) and share your observations.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Anubhav

These things interfere with Illustrator's clipboard. Do you have any of them?

arallels Toolbox running with the Clipboard History
TeamVewer Clipboard > Use Shared Clipboard
Apple iOS device simulator from Xcode
Windows Multi-clipboard
Windows Clipboard History
Chrome Remote Desktop
Mouse Pointer Highlighter
AnyViewer
Pastebot app
Overzealous antivirus (Digital Guardian) as well as viruses that empty the clipboard
Vector Magic

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
