Copy and paste not working

Type: <b>Bug</b> I will be working normally, then randomly the copy and paste keyboard shortcuts will stop working, and I get a "Contributed command editor.action.clipboardCopyAction does not exist" error. Sometimes, even the right-click menu copy and paste options will break as well. I CANNOT WORK LIKE THIS! I know I am not the only person having this issue because Google has tons of articles with the exact same issue, going back years. People on the internet should not have to figure out workarounds for your broken program. FIX IT!
