Hi everyone,
I’m experiencing a critical issue with UiPath Studio during development (not execution).
Issue description
UiPath Studio freezes whenever I try to copy anything, not just activities:
-
Activities (Ctrl+C)
-
Variables
-
Strings inside activities
-
Plain text (even from logs or error messages)
This is not related to running workflows. The issue happens while editing.
Behavior
-
Studio freezes immediately after pressing Ctrl+C
-
Sometimes it recovers after a few seconds, sometimes I need to force close
-
Happens consistently, regardless of project size
Environment
This seems related to clipboard interaction, since the issue happens even when copying simple text.
What I already tested
-
Restarted Studio and machine
-
Tested in a blank project (same issue)
-
Ran Studio as administrator
-
Disabled background apps
-
Cleared UiPath cache
-
Updated to latest version
Additional notes
-
The issue started: [after update / suddenly / unknown]
-
Happens every time I use Ctrl+C
-
Does NOT depend on project complexity
Question
Has anyone seen UiPath Studio freezing due to clipboard operations?
Could this be related to:
-
Windows clipboard history?
- Never has been activated
-
Third-party clipboard tools?
- Might be TightVNC?
-
Known Studio bug?
Any workaround or fix would help a lot.
Thanks!
