Indesign copy shortcut crash

[julyanxavier86]

Hey all,

I know this issue has been posted before but I am struggling to find an answer that works for me. I am running Indesign version 15.0.1 on an iMac OS Catalina 10.15.2. Over the last few weeks I cannot even count how many times Indesign has crashed when I hit 'command+c' to copy something. It seems to usually happen when trying to copy text boxes (but not always). and it doesn't crash every time i use the shortcut. It has a mind of it's own. 

I'm at a loss and it's hugely frustrating trying to work when this keeps happening! Any help or insight would be very appreciated, thank you
