This is how CIS is designed. It’s to stop malware running in the sandbox using copy and paste techniques to steal your information. Future version of CIS (released around end of July) should have an option to disable this feature.

It is a problem that was posted several times in the official forum of comodo. When using Comodo, we recommend that you browse the official forum from time to time.

So one can't even use CTL C and CTL V with Comodo to copy and paste?

My memory is ambiguous, but I guess copy paste was possible just a short time ago. Probably the specification has been changed somewhere in ver.10.

I asked about this copy/paste issue on the Comodo beta forum, a few months ago, when the feature was new. They said that they deliberately blocked copy/paste from sandboxed apps, for security reasons, and they also said that in a future version of Comodo, they will bring back copy/paste.

Hi all, I've been using comodo dragon for a few years just for antivirus, but just recently starting playing around with the comodo containment browser in the last few days. This problem really bugged me as well.

I found a novel work around is to also open the word-pad file in comodo container. You can copy and paste between comodo containers.

Best to have the doc file inside the shared workspace under your username that way changes you make to the document be saved to your real file.

By default, copying clipboard content from sandboxed applications to real user space is disabled. In the newest version(s) of Comodo, you can enable it, if you wish. I don't remember where the setting is, but it should be in autocontainment settings.
