Command + V and Command + C key command do not work when saving files into a folder

When I upgraded to the newest version of illustrator my art team and I lost the ability to use key commands to copy (command c) and paste (command v) when saving into a folder. This is very frustrating as we are saving files in subfolders all day and now have to either type the file names manually or right click and choose "copy" and "paste." Does anyone know of a fix to this or even experience this issue. I am on the newest version of illustrator. Any help would be a god send.

 

I have attached the save in folder screen where keyboard shortcuts suddenly stopped working

Thank you!!

@Mitch27933992l7fe can you confirm if you're using Ventura 13 or 13.1? Curious as I've had issues since updating to 13.1 simply using copy and paste in Apple notes well as saving file names in my folder management when trying to copy and paste names (not within Adobe).

Hey Jess, I'm on ventura 13.1 by the way. I'll also look for what you mentioned with other copy/paste. I have not experienced it yet. Thanks!

Thank you, Laura! I've found this issue (just like the zooming bug that happens in Ai, Id, and Apple apps) impossible to reproduce as there seems to be no reproducible triggers.

I have the same issue. It's not part of my regular workflow, so I haven't tried to do this before, but I can confirm it's not working.
