Outlook clipboard
So Outlook is refusing to let me right click and past again. I thought i solved this problem a few years ago by setting dom.events.asyncClipboard.clipboardItem dom.events.asyncClipboard.readText dom.events.testing.asyncClipboard to True in about:config. And sure enough those settings are still set to True so why is Outlook now telling me it can't access my clipboard again?

I still have Win7, let me see if I can replicate. Provide the exact steps to replicate your issue.

Navigate to the outlook website ( https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/ ). Start a new email. Right click in the message body area and paste whatever is in your clipboard.

You can try, the preference, dom.event.contextmenu.enabled value false.
1 - Go to Configuration Editor for Firefox https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/about-config-editor-firefox 2 - Enter a search term dom.event.contextmenu.enabled

Ok, i made the change that you suggested. It seems that both outlook's context menu and my computer's context menu pops up now. When i use my computer's paste, it works, but using outlooks pastes still doesn't. It's a nice working workaround but the core problem, whatever it is, still seem to be present. Thanks for the workaround though.

Ok, this is now causing my PC's context menu to pop up everywhere else so it no longer a viable workaround.
