it's hard to visualize or fathom the situation that you're in without telling the steps you did, what applications are involved, etc. meaning provide more details.

#

right so

#

i don't have any clipboard managing apps

#

but i do have lightshot

#

screenshotting program that i use

#

can copy image to clipboard sometimes

#

but nobody's ever had that issue so i don't think that's it

cinder basalt
#

i have no clue what could be causing this hence why i asked here

warm steppe
#

third party applications may have crypto mining malware (either hijacked installer or intentional/informed but not clearly communicated)

#

This is what I found

Try uninstalling Lightshot, if you don’t have anything important.

#

I literally have had lightshot for years

#

It's never done this until last month

warm steppe
#

well, you already been screwed by crypto miners.
does it matter now?

cinder basalt
#

I have google chrome and some chrome versions are more prone to malware

#

that doesn't mean I have malware

#

What you're saying is literally stupid

warm steppe
#

you have it now. bre, up to you. your system has crypto mining malware and you don't even care when people mention it.
whatever you gonna say to me doesn't change the fact, your pc is now a zombie.

cinder basalt
#

And the link you sent literally just says that if you use lightshot's domain to save your images (which i don't) your screenshots are public and anyone can view them

#

Right

#

Here's what I suggest

#

Shut the fuck up if you have no useful information towards this

warm steppe
#

🤡 seriously up to you.
the signs of infection is obvious.

cinder basalt
#

@warm steppe What are the signs of infection? What proves lightshot is a virus?

shadow cypress
#

Basically, you can try removing it and seeing if it stopped.

Change the language, please.

I don't care how you think I should talk, and no removing lightshot didn't fix it
