InDesign 2023 crashes when I copy text

The program closes while the text is being copied. When trying to recover a file, the program also crashes. The file is a template downloaded from stock, everything can be edited etc. but it crashes just only when I copying text.

I have the exact same problem with a template I downloaded from Adobe Stock. If I hit Cmd C, everything crashes and the recovery file will crash as well. Did you ever find a fix for it?

Cheers!!

You'll have to elaborate on exactly what you're doing, version on InDesign, your operating system, which template and exact steps to reproduce

Open it again, export as IDML, open exported IDML, save with a new name - should fix the problem.

What template is it?

Sounds like something is wrong with it. 

Can you point us to where you downloaded it from?
