Edge Update Causing Issues with Highlighting and Copy/Paste From Web Form Fields

Edge has been updated and it's causing issues with highlighting and copy/paste from a web form field. I tested this on 3 different PCs. The issue presents itself with Edge version: Version 131.0.2903.51 (Official build) (64-bit). 2 of my PCs were updated to that version and do not work. The PC that is still on the older version of Edge 130.0.2849.80 (Official build) (64-bit) still works. Rolled a browser on a PC having the issue back to Edge 130.0.2849.80 and the problem went away. Anyon else having this issue?

    I am also facing this copy and paste, highlight issue after installing latest Edge Nov 2024 updates on few SNOW/ ServiceNow webpages.

    Below are the updates installed:

    Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime Version 131 Update for x64 based Editions (Build 131.0.2903.51)

    Microsoft Edge-Stable Channel Version 131 Update for x64 based Editions (Build 131.0.2903.51)

    The same webpages work fine (Copy+Paste and highlight) in Google Chrome version 124.0.6367.208.
