I'm facing this issue too since the last insider update. If I disable the screen reader support, the paste command works properly.

I tried the following without success:

• restart vscode with all extensions disabled (Developer: Reload With Extensions Disabled).
• call the paste command from the palete using f1 or ctrl + shift + p.

This command works in the file explorer, the console, and other text fields, but not in text editor.

EditContext is turned on by default only on Insiders, so this does not need to be a candidate

The workaround is to disable the setting editor.experimentalEditContextEnabled

I can confirm that disabling the setting makes paste work

Use Right-Click on mousepad or mouse. Simple as it is and try to use Command prompt instead of Power Shell.

After talking in the standup, it was decided this issue would not be made into a candidate. So I removed the label and will be closing this issue.
