in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

There should be some kind of Task Manager in Windows that tells you what else is running on the system.

As for the settings in certain apps: if you have those apps, check their settings.

Other apps are interfering with the clipboard and that might affect Illustrator most in your situation, because Illustrator might be the application that produces the most complex objects in your case.

Hello @Hugo29780694gsh7,

We understand that encountering technical issues can be frustrating. Would you mind trying to run Illustrator under Safe Mode (Windows / macOS) and checking if it helps? Also, try running Illustrator under a different administrator account (Windows / macOS) and share your observations.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav
