Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

  • VS Code Version: 1.96.3
  • OS Version: Firefox on Mac through https://github.dev

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. On Firefox, go to https://github.dev and authenticate
  2. In the file tree, Right Click to trigger the context menu
  3. ISSUE: Sometimes a menu with just "Paste" shows up
  4. Right Click in the file tree again
  5. ISSUE: Sometimes 2 menus show up (one with "Paste" and one with the actual context menu)

I've also noticed this happen on 1.93.1 and not on 1.89.1

Does this happen when you have files open too? And does it happen to other context menus in other places?

@lramos15 this seems to only effect the file tree tab.

I see it happening on github.dev whether or not an actual project is open.

And the integrated terminal

To enable the rightclick menu, set dom.events.testing.asyncClipboard to True in about:config

Just tested! WORKS! However, this bypasses clipboard protection! So it increases certain risks! A native fix is therefore still (urgently) required!
