Unable to copy & paste - paste button greyed out

[m654321]

Open a terminal, do: ls -la paste the results. Cheers.

Two posts following your above advice, one containing the output from  'ls -la', appear to have been deleted from the forum (maybe the result of removing a bad mod from the forum that you reported recently), the other where you stated that the output looked normal but that maybe code may have been introduced inadvertently, which had upset normal functioning.

I appear to have solved the 'copy & paste' issue.  My young son said he didn't himself do any coding work on LL but he did install Minecraft, together with OptiFine, the latter being a Minecraft optimization mod. These did not originate from the LL repository, so it could have been that one of these (or both) introduced some rogue code because when I deleted both Minecraft and Optifine normal 'copy & paste' functionality returned. I will therefore mark this post as solved.  Thanks for your time in trying to help me with this one - much appreciated as always.
