Powershell does not work when I try to paste

Hello,

I am a Mac User working from a remote Windows machine.
When I copy a command and try to copy it to Powershell, nothing happens.
I have tried by left click, right click, intro, control v, etceteras.

I have also tried from a Windows 7 Home Premium computer and I have the same issue.
Is there a solution for this?

Up to 10 attachments (including images) can be used with a maximum of 3.0 MiB each and 30.0 MiB total.

Just to be clear, your reference to "Mac user" refers only to your experience and not to an Mac server or workstation. Is that correct?

Are you able to, from your local machine, run commands that you type on the remote machine?

If you run a local session of PowerShell and copy/paste, does it work? If you run Notepad on the remote machine can you copy/paste from your local machine into Notepad?

If all of the above is true then the problem may lie with the connectivity software you're using. Some keystrokes/mouse clicks may not be sent from your local machine to the remote machine. But that has nothing to do with PowerShell.
