    Hi RabbitKP.082,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    If you open the clipboard app (Windows Key + V can you find your typed data listed there?

    If you can, then it is very likely you may have malware, possibly a key logger on your PC, because your typed data should not appear on the clipboard, if you did not copy it.

    Open Defender or your preferred anti-virus and run a gull offline scan with that.

    Then download the free version of Malwarebytes and run a scan with that

    Do either of those find malware on your PC?
