Cannot copy and paste with C-c C-v

#1

I am running Sublime on Windows 10.
If I use my mouse to select text with my right hand and use my left hand to copy and paste (C-c C-v) the text is not copied, and not pasted.
I thought this might be a keyboard problem and changed my keyboard, but I still have the same problem.

It seems to work fine for me on Windows 11 using ST 4134. It could be you have some keybindings that override the default copy paste key bindings ? You can try running sublime.log_commands(True) & sublime.log_input(True) from the ST console and then press ctrl + c, ctrl + v to see if they log what you expect.

It should log something like this.

key evt: ctrl+c
command: copy
command: drag_select {"event": {"button": 1, "x": 720.5, "y": 308.5}}
key evt: ctrl+v
command: paste

That fixed it for me. Many thanks. I had inadvertently bound C-c to another command.
