Vscode: Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V doesn't work in Explorer after Electron 8 update in Insiders builds

[IllusionMH]

Issue Type: Bug

This is basically #98425 but I haven't found any open tracking issues.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Select file in Explorer (e.g. filename.ext)
2. Press Ctrl+C and then Ctrl+V
3. Nothing happens

Expected result: filename copy.ext is created

Thanks @IllusionMH

[bpasero]

I can reproduce with bare Electron and this looks like an Electron 8 bug @deepak1556

This also reproduces using the mouse context menu: so the entire copy/paste flow is broken.

It looks like a fix for the electron bug was merged into all the relevant branches (8.x, 9.x, and 10.x) about 8 days ago. Hopefully a new release will come soon.

[IllusionMH]

But last Electron release was 9 days ago, so fix should be only in the next build.

Yeah, I know. I meant hopefully a new Electron release will be out soon.

still error vscode 1.48.0-insider can't copy paste with remote wsl

Looks like we'll have to wait for Electron to upgrade to 9.1.1

[deepak1556]

Should be fixed in latest insiders, please check. Thanks!

Thanks! Works as expected in:
