Sometimes when I copy and paste code into Positron, after repeating this action more than three times, the program crashes and the pasting becomes an infinite loop.

Thank you for opening this issue. Is there more info that you can provide? Are you pasting the code into an editor or into the console?

Does the issue also occur in the latest prerelease?

I couldn't take a screenshot because the PC froze. But when I copied some text from the editor to paste it on another line, the PC froze while the paste loop continued.

Something like you can see in the image.

PD: I'd like to add that a CMD window suddenly opens when I use Positron. What could that be?

@romu545 The command window sounds like a separate issue. Can you open another one for that and include any info that you might think is relevant for it?

For the copy/paste, can you try using paste from the Edit menu or right-clicking in the editor and invoking from the context menu?
