Description of the issue: I can not copy and paste when I right click on the mouse for the Brave Wallet. Ctrl C/Ctrl V did work but I still think the mouse should work also.

Is the issue occurring on a specific network? No

What operating system are you using? Windows 11 Home

Brave Version (check About Brave): V1.79 119

Additional Information

@Agent_Orange77 copy and paste what? For example,

  • If I go to send something, I can copy/paste:

  • If I want my account number, then in my accounts, it provides the Copy to Clipboard button:

And in Portfolio with balances you can select and Copy

That said, you’re correct that not everything is able to be copy/paste.

So what exactly are you trying to copy/paste?

My bad, I was trying to add the XDC network to my ETH wallet and it will not copy and paste with Right Click, also it will not copy and past the private key for another ETH acct I was trying to add to my Brave Wallet. I am liking the Brave Wallet more than Metamask now and am in the process of switching it over. I had to type the private key in myself and that is not cool lol. So copy and pasting to the Brave Wallet is not working with Right Click, it did copy and paste the private key with Ctrl C/ Ctrl V though but I found that out after I did manually.

From what I can see, it would allow me to copy/paste with right click. Not sure what you might have been doing differently. You can see in the screenshot above that I am in the import with the key and it’s allowing me to right click in the box and choose paste.

Works same with adding a custom asset and all as well, which you can see in the screenshot below.

This is on the same OS and version of Brave as you. It makes it sound like you might have something else that might have been causing problems. Extensions shouldn’t matter but might. Otherwise not sure what it might be. Could always tag in Evan123 from Brave to see if he has ideas, but for now I just wanted to let you know I’m trying to replicate and the issue doesn’t seem to be inherent to Brave

I just tried again and it will not work, I copied part of a sentence you wrote and it will not do anything when I right click, but Ctrl C/Ctrl V does work so I will just use that. Thanks anyways bud.
