Lockbox 5.0 Build 113 - purchased

I'm currently unable to copy and paste in my lockbox. This started about a week ago. Any ideas?

Copy and Paste is a Windows function. Have you tried rebooting your computer?

The computer has been rebooted numerous times over the past week. So the answer is, "Yes."

Excuse me. I wasn't clear. Copy and paste works everywhere EXCEPT in Lockbox.

Copy and Paste is a Windows function. There is no setting within LockBox to control copy/paste. You can find a few troubleshooting tips here:

Give one of them a try and see if it helps.

I tried all the Windows patches, including sfc/scannow. Ultimately, I stumbled across a page which addressed different applications one can have on a PC which could be causing the problem and tells how to fix each.

You're right, of course, that it isn't Lockbox with the problem. Lockbox seems to be the only app which was impacted.

My fix is in.

After trying all the suggestions I could find on the internet, I found this page on an unexpected site.
One of my settings inside a newly installed program (specifically Webroot) was causing the problem.
