I was able to use the clipboard (copy/paste) until I copied a text in the new message interface of Gmail. Since then, I can't copy/paste anything in edge (but I can still copy paste in other programs than edge).
I received a new update yesterday (Version 84.0.488.1 (Official build) dev (64-bit)

At first, when the bug only happened on gmail and I could simply close Edge and reopen it and my clipboard would work normally. But now I (and my colleagues) also have the bug on google docs (it appears after 2 or 3 copy/paste). With this bug, it's impossible to work.

@Deleted , Ok it's done. I noticed that it specifically after I cut a text (ctrl x) that the bug appears. Before that I can copy paste with problem even on google docs and gmail. Also the clipboard still works on other tab.

@Deleted I also suddenly have this problem. And I checked that I can "paste" same item item in a Gmail item in Chrome. (Don't worry, I use both Chrome and Outlook).
In searching for precedent, I saw this article among others https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/. I'm only pasting it in this message to confirm to myself that cut and paste still works outside of GMail.

@Deleted wow this bug is super annoying!!! I thought it was only me, I want to copy things into an email and fail over and over.
Do you have a link to the bug so I can track when it is fixed?
