Intercepting and preventing "copy", "cut" and "paste" event works by means of context menu. I don't know whether it will work with key combination such as Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V, and Ctrl-X. I have a clipboard extender app and it can paste saved string with no problem (bypass "paste" event checks). So I'm not all that sure about "security reason". Look forward to others' opinions ... https://code.sololearn.com/Wn6bVlVMEfWr/?ref=app
