Copy link to clipboard

Hi,
Unable to copy path from photoshop into illustrator.
The other way around works fine. Also dragging the shape from photoshop into illustrator works fine.
Is there an option in the options bar or preferences I am missing?
The process: Copying a path while on the path/shape layer (using sub selection or the selection tool), moving to the illustrator file, "paste" shows a copy of recent copied text from other applications. The paste command doesnt even bring up the "paste options" window.
illustrator cc2017 21.1.0
photoshop cc2017 18.1.2
os - windows 7
Thank you,

Just to check—the export clipboard preference (General category) in Photoshop is enabled? As you've deleted the prefs it's unlikely to be changed but just worth a shot—I've known stranger behaviours.
The only other thing I can think of is that there is a mask on the active layer when you copy; if that's the case, make another layer (without a mask) active before you execute the copy command.
Hope that helps.
Hey Michael
This should work the way that it always has. Select the path with the Path Selection Tool and copy, then paste in Illustrator and choose from the two path options. I've just checked here and it's working as expected.
If you're still experiencing problems, then it may be that you have a corrupted preference setting in Photoshop or Illustrator. It may help to reset your preferences: How to set preferences in Illustrator (and the operation should be identical for Photoshop).
It's quite rar
