Paste from clipboard doesn't always work #14323

@mdrustad

Description

@mdrustad

Windows Terminal version

1.15.2874.0

Windows build number

10.0.19044.2130

Other Software

Old Intel workbench internal tool
Notepad++ v8.4.1

Steps to reproduce

Copy some text out of the old workbench tool and attempt to paste it into Terminal. Nothing is pasted. I can paste into Notepad++. If I do, I can then copy that text from Notepad++ and then paste it into terminal. Without knowing any details, it seems to me that Notepad++ is supporting some older clipboard methodology that is not present in Terminal. Please add whatever it is that is missing in Terminal.

Expected Behavior

What was copied should have been pasted into Terminal as input.

Actual Behavior

Nothing is pasted when data is copied from that old app.
