 Cannot copy and paste event code

PHPRunner General questions

I am using PHPR 8.0. I cannot copy PHP code from Notepad or PHPR 5.3 and paste it into the new version. It doesn't matter whether I right-click and use the Copy & Paste from the right click menu, or whether I use Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V.
I have tried to reboot and then open ONLY PHPR 8.0, and just copy a couple of lines of event code from within the same event and paste it further down in the event. No paste at all.
Anyone else have this problem?
I have it on both a Windows 7 (current in fixes and SP) and a Windows 8.1 laptop. I sure do need to copy a LOT of event code from some PHPR 5.3 projects into PHPR 8.0 projects.
2nd question - has anyone tried to copy and paste event code into the PHPR file itself, opening it in Notepad or some other editor?
Thank you in advance,

Chuck

Hi Chuck,
I'm using PHPR on Win 7 64 Bit and have no problems with copy & paste. Both methodes (Ctrl and right click) running fine inside PHPR and together with other apps (Notepad++).

Peter

Aha!!! I found the problem. As it turns out, I am running WebRoot for AV and malware protection. WebRoot has my PHPR 5.3 and 8.0 set for deny in the Identity Protection section of it's application. Essentially, it is preventing paste within the application.
While I love WebRoot, beware of this. Somehow, WebRoot in it's infinite wisdom set PHPRunner this way in some kind of defense mode, perhaps thinking it was not to be automatically safe for copy/paste and potential identity theft issues? Anyway, once I set both of the PHPR versions to "Allow" (instead of Deny) I am able to copy and paste ALL I want.
