Premiere Elements 2021 - Unable to paste text (copied prior to launching PE 2021) in Project title

I submitted this request to fix a bug a week ago and still no answer from Adobe.  

 

I have discovered an annoying bug in PE 2021.  If you copy a line of text (CTRL+ C) before launching PE 2021, there is nothing to paste (CTRL + V) once you launch PE 2021 and attempt to rename the new project for instance. 

 

Step to reproduce bug:

  1. Copy to clipboard the name of a folder that you want to use as the project name
  2. Launch PE 2021
  3. File/New Project and paste the content of the clipboard to the line project “Name”

Result: nothing to paste – Need to copy folder name only once PE 2021 has been launched.

 

Can anyone at Adobe fix this bug?

You copy/paste after you launch elements no before.

I agree with Ann. It's not a bug. It's how the program works. It's very unlikely it will ever be "fixed".

Although provided by Adobe, this is a user to user forum.  Your expectations of bug fixes might be a little optimistic.  But as you wrote, CTRL+ C and CTRL+V seem to work on my Windows computer when I do it the way you suggest.  Where did you submit the bug fix request?

I don't know how/where to submit a bug fix. Could you advise wherefore submit?
This is definitely a bug or needed feature as no other software works like this. What is copied to the clipboard should be able to be pasted to any any applications.
