Alright, I'm stumped. I've done this a million times. Copy and paste (ctrl c + ctrl v) text into a story entry. It won't work in FG for some reason. It works on my web browser. I tried it with the Savage Worlds and Trail of Cthulhu rulesets. Tried it with the window minimized or full screen, tried ctrl c from a pdf, web browser address, note pad... same result, no text appears in FG when I hit ctrl v but it will appear anywhere else. I ran a game tonight and tried working on a module afterward, nothing will work. I'm sure it's something really stupid. Anybody has an idea what to do to fix this?

Do you use Webroot?

Wow, that's like you're spying on me! lol Yes I'm using the 6months free trial of Webroot! Thank you, I'll get that fixed right away!

It's working for me. I just tested it. Unfortunately, I am not sure why it would be happening for you.

what do you mean "get that fixed"? stick with webroot - it is a very powerful AV product... dont remove it just get it configured to allow FG :)

Just changed the settings and clicked on "protect" instead of "deny". No worries Damian :)
