Hi Michael,
Thanks Right click selected text and use "Copy" from the main context menu
works, and will be what I use as a bypass.
Thought I had tried that, seems I saw it and didn't use it., or only used it once.
Seems after doing that , that Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V are working again, perhaps
that was why it was hard to remember, after all Copy from Edit menu used to
work, and that too works again. So I may only have to do that once each time
it actually gets stuck and of course remember.
