Highlight and paste not working in FireFox 69.0 [solved]

[rdonnelly]

For some reason I can no longer highlight text and center mouse button paste into FF. Anyone else having this problem?

Works fine here on 69.0. I.e., selecting your text below and center-button pasting into this reply box:

So what can be causing it in my case? Add ons?

Works here too, I disabled all of my add ons, now to find the culprit?

There does appear to be a middlemouse.paste choice in about:config but as to which addon would disable it, no idea.

Mine is set to true, and once again not working, maybe a plugin instead of an addon?

Turns out it's actually my mouse button, I have to press it extra hard I guess? Or it was the latest update that fixed it for me?

So I just had to blow the dust out of my mouse and now it works fine.
