macOS Monterey hotkeys

After installing Monterey I can't paste without formatting even when I hit paste without formatting in the "edit" tab, I can no longer use command z to undo writing in google slides or docs, etc. Is there any way to fix? help

thanks so much

All Command shortcuts quit working once I updated to Monterey As soon as I upgraded to Monterey all of my shortcuts using Command stopped working. Not only for my software I use, but universally between programs. You never know how much you use copy and paste using the keyboard until you can't. Is there an easy solution around this without having to go through the process of downgrading back to Big Sur? I'm not confident enough in my Apple skills to do that. I've reinstalled Monterey several times with no luck. I was hoping the latest update would fix, but it didn't. I can't find any solutions online. Help!

copy and paste not working MacBook Pro running Big Sur 11.5.2 stopped copying and pasting either text or documents. I can select the item or text and either hit command-c, right click-copy, or Edit-Copy, but when I chose to paste it somewhere, nothing happens. When I check the Clipboard, it is empty. I have run OS updates, restarted multiple times but still doesn't work. I have also force quit the pboards process in Activity Monitor and killall pboards in Terminal to no avail. The funny thing is that copy and paste works fine in another user on the same Mac. So the question is: What should I being looking to pull/delete from the this affected user Library to fix this?

There is nothing in Monterey that changed those, so I'm not sure how to fix short of the old restart.

Maybe try starting up in Safe Mode to clear system caches, then restart normally.
