I just saw this and felt I should share it. I'm sure most people here wouldn't fall for it but it can't hurt to make sure 👍

Edit: I just wanted to add, I have no idea what this tried to copy. I'm using Firefox on Linux which is perhaps why it didn't make it to my clipboard 🤷

Honestly having Win-R enabled in home edition is a bad default.

Agree. It's usually used just to run cmd, which then does the same thing but also shows output and allows for interactive CLI. Linux does it right with Ctrl+Alt+T.
