The Copy/Paste Issue Seems to Have Returned

Report · May 21, 2025

In order to copy/paste in Dreamweaver 21.5 (Windows 11), I have to click out of the program only to have to click back into the program just to copy. If I don't do this, when I copy the selected text (code), it will randomly jump and just copy something else. Rebooting has no effect.

Thank you DaleValet. Crash everytime I try to paste code from one HTML doc to another. Seems to work when I click out of DW then back in. Just started with update. Was working well before update. Wasted alot of time restarting and nothing else was working!

Came here to report the same issue. It's driving me crazy! Ctrl V seems to work but when I highlight and Ctrl C it unhighlights the section and doesn't copy anything for me.
