I can´t copy-paste in Talend 8

Hello, I used to be able to copy components from one job to another, but now I can't. Even within the job, I can't copy and paste. The paste option appears disabled. What should I do to fix this?

When copy-pasting components within a job or between jobs stops working and the paste option is disabled, it's typically an application-specific issue. To troubleshoot, first **restart the application and your computer**. Then, check for **software updates** and verify your **user permissions** within the application. If issues persist, consider clearing the application's cache, testing with a different user profile, or checking for conflicts with other software or clipboard managers. Providing the **name of the software** you're using will allow for more targeted assistance.

Thanks, Susan. It was a permissions issue in Talend.
Once the changes were made, I downloaded the latest version of the Master branch in Git and restarted my PC.
Everything was fixed, and I'm back to copying and pasting happily 🙂
