In PowerPoint on the web the Copy and paste is not working. but if I use the CTRL+C | CTRL+V it is working fine.
But if I use the mouse right click after highlighting a text and press the copy button
when I paste it the item that gets pasted is the one I Copied using CTRL+C

2023-09-26T14:19:40.9933333+00:00 Hi, thank you for this answer, we have tried multiple browsers but got the same results.
We made sure in the browser that clipboard is allowed.
Also completed clearing cache and cookies.
The keyboard keys CTRL-C and CTRL-V are working fine,
but when I try to copy using right mouse click and press copy,
the one that gets pasted is still the one I used the keyboard shortcuts.

Agree with @John Korchok. May I know which browser you are using? Update it to the latest and clear caches and cookies of it. If the issue persists, this could be a bug in that browser. It is recommended to change a browser or use the keyboard shortcuts until the issue is resolved.
