Chromium Edge touch screen copy function doesn't work

Question

and it won't even let me screen touch paste text from the clipboard here

Answer 1

Let me ask my colleagues to help us with this. There might be another workaround. Please wait for them to respond.

Answer 2

I can't get into Safemode. Following the aforementioned procedure, it asks for a bitlocker key. I don't have one. Says to go to aka.ms/recovery/keyfaq if you need help in this regard, but the link only takes you to a MS promotional page.

Answer 3

I suggest that you run Windows in Safe mode and see if you will have the same problem.

Follow the steps from this link:

Let me know what happens after.

Answer 4

I tried all the steps in the troubleshooting link you provided. None fixed the problem. My touch screen has always worked, including copy and paste gestures. The only time it doesn't is with the new Chrome based Edge, installed a few days ago. So it must be a problem with the new Edge, on my Surface Pro 4. Win 10 build 19041.388. When I do the touch gesture for text copy in the new Edge, the option to select and copy text doesn't appear.
