    For Excel, Ctrl+V should paste normally, and Ctrl+D is a standard Excel shortcut. Since normal paste is failing but Paste Special options like Values or Formulas still work, the most direct fix supported here is to remove the Office update that is causing the issue.

    1. Open Settings in Windows.
    2. Go to Windows Update > Update history > Uninstall updates.
    3. Look for the recent Office-related update. A reported cause is KB5002914.
    4. Uninstall that update.
    5. Restart the PC.
    6. Test again in Excel with:
      • Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V
      • Ctrl+D

    If normal copy/paste still does not return after uninstalling the update, the next reported step is to reinstall Office.

    For immediate work while fixing it:

    • Use Ctrl+Alt+V to open Paste Special.
    • In that dialog:
      • Press V to paste Values
      • Press F to paste Formulas
      • Press A to paste All

    The Paste problem and Autofill problem is widely reported in Excel as being caused by the latest Office update (KB5002914).

    What is the exact version of Office installed on your PC, is that Office 2016, 2019, 2021, 2024 or Microsoft 365.
