Adobe Express Photos 6.6.2 - Screenshots are pasted as Outlook attachments instead of inline images

I found what appears to be a clipboard format issue in Adobe Express Photos 6.6.2.

Environment:

• Adobe Express Photos 6.6.2
• Windows 10 Pro 22H2
• Microsoft Outlook Classic (Microsoft 365)

Steps to reproduce:

1. Capture a screenshot using Adobe Express Photos with the Print Screen shortcut.
2. Press Ctrl+V inside a new HTML email in Outlook Classic.

Result:

Outlook inserts the screenshot as a file attachment instead of an inline image.

Expected result:

The screenshot should be pasted directly into the message body.

Investigation:

Using InsideClipboard, Adobe Express Photos places the following clipboard formats:

• CF_BITMAP
• CF_HDROP
• FileContents
• FileGroupDescriptorW
• Shell IDList Array

Windows Snipping Tool only places image formats (CF_BITMAP/PNG), and Outlook correctly pastes the image inline.

Microsoft Word pastes the Adobe Express screenshot correctly because it uses the bitmap clipboard format, while Outlook prioritizes CF_HDROP and treats the clipboard contents as a file attachment.

This suggests Adobe Express Photos should avoid placing CF_HDROP (or related virtual file formats) on the clipboard when the user captures a screenshot intended for clipboard pasting.
