Paste from clipboard not working

[herrschmidt]

Describe the bug
When I hit ctrl+v with a file or folder visible in the "Clipboard" panel, nothing happens. The item remains in the clipboard and does not get pasted.

Maybe there are other issues with my installation, because I also can not see the file / folder icons. They show up as diamonds with a question mark. Installed it with bash -c "$(wget -qO- https://superfile.netlify.app/install.sh)"

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create new file in user directory "test.md"
2. Press ctrl+c
3. Verify file is in clipboard pane
4. Create new subdir "testdir/" and enter dir
5. Press ctrl+v
6. Nothing happens

Expected behavior
File gets pasted

System information (please complete the following information):

• OS: Ubuntu (accessed via ssh over Windows 11 Powershell)
• Version 24.04
• superfile Version 1.1.6

I have the same issue. I am running a fresh install of Raspberry Pi OS Lite and spf. Accessing it the same as OP (W11 Powershell)
At first I was getting no error when copying, but I got this error:

No clipboard utilities available. Please install xsel, xclip, wl-clipboard or Termux:API add-on for termux-clipboard-get/set.

After installing and testing each one except Termux, I got the same error plus a new one:

Copy single item write file error

The new error shows up just before the one about the clipboard utilities, but has also shown up without the clipboard utilities error following it, tho I did try to paste

I'm also experiencing the same issue in Ubuntu 24.04 (WSL 2). I can cut/copy but can't paste.

Unfortunately I still can't paste from the clipboard, when using powershell or cmd to access my Ubuntu server via ssh. Also the icons are still missing, only question marks in squares. If I start powershell as admin, the file and folder entries show up twice and change upon selecting different files via up/down. also the vertical dividers are shifted to the left or right in some rows.

Access spf on Ubuntu 24 via Win 11 powershell:

Same, but powershell with admin privileges:

When I use another terminal called Termius from my Win 11 machine, copy paste works (but up/down buttons do not, only j/k). And all the icons are correctly displayed.

What I did:

1. Uninstalled spf
2. Cloned the superfile repo to my Ubuntu 24 computer
3. ran the build script
4. moved the executable: sudo mv ./bin/spf /usr/local/bin
5. ran: spf in the shell
