Cannot Copy a file in VSCode (in Home Assistant) open in Firefox

On Firefox browser, I cannot Copy a file in Studio Code Server (within Home Assistant). SCS is open in HA in a Firefox tab. I get the error popup "Unable to read from the browser's clipboard. Please make sure you have granted access for this website to read from the clipboard." "Learn More" links to https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/codespaces#_how-do-i-allow-vs-code-to-access-my-clipboard-for-reading and the "How do I allow VS Code to access my clipboard for reading?" section. But I cannot find similar settings in Firefox's Settings menu.

Any suggestions please on how to resolve this? I'm sure I used ~ a year back to be able to Copy a file ok in VSCode on Firefox. Thank you.

You should contact their support on how to use their software or how to integrate with Firefox browser since that isn't a Mozilla product.

Hi @markwarner22 The problem is on the Firefox Settings side. As I explained, and provided a link to, VSCS have provided a good indication of what the issue is and (on other browsers) how to solve it. My question was/is how to achieve that on Firefox...
