There is no "Copy" Function In Context Menu In Microsoft Edge

Where is the "Copy" function?

I know I can use CTRL+C to copy the text, but how I am supposed to do when I don't have any keyboard attached, and only mouse. Using "On-screen keyboard" for such a great function is waste of time.

Using roundabout way, like "Search the web for "xxxxx"" is waste of time, when the thing you want to do is just copy the text, imagine when i opened a website and want to copy several texts from there, and it happen to be a hyperlink, I need to search each one to grab the text.

    Dear Greg,

    I wanted to bring to your attention that Ade was referring to the context menu in MS Edge. It seems that after some updates, the 'Copy' option disappeared when selecting text or links. Unfortunately, the articles you cited won't help in this particular case, as they only deal with the context menu within the Windows system itself.

    I am also subscribed to this topic as I have personally encountered this problem as well.
