Paste no longer works with Electron >= 32.3.0 · Issue #238609 · microsoft/vscode
Type: Bug Neither right-click:paste or ctrl-v:paste work anymore for text copying. All other actions seem to work fine including copy. It is to note that right-click:paste works within the terminal...
Since a few days ago when I updated my system, I noticed that I was unable to paste anything while using Code - OSS. It seems an issue caused by the newer Electron version.
On the issue page there are a few solutions listed already.
I'm posting this in case someone is having the same issue and might be wondering what is going on.
