Please try: (setq select-active-regions nil mouse-drag-copy-region t x-select-enable-primary t x-select-enable-clipboard nil) (global-set-key [mouse-2] 'mouse-yank-at-click) I'm not saying there isn't a real issue, what you describe does sound a=20 bit similar to a problem that occasionally occurred with the new=20 settings (without any changes to them) a while back, but please try with=20 the above settings, which are AFAIK still* (whatever the NEWS file may=20 currently say) the actual current recipe to restore the old behaviour=20 (except on windows) - if you only did precisely what you said in your=20 2., then AFAIK you were running with a doom-laden mix of old and new=20 settings. * bearing in mind I'm only beginning a personal catchup on about 3=C2=BD=20 months of emacs developments.
