PowerApps is crashing after using CTRL + C

I have been experiencing this problem for quite some time. When I try to copy an element from PowerApps formula are and paste it in a Text Editor, the application closes and I can't recover what I have done.

Not all the times that I copy something this happens, but when it happens, it bothers me a lot.

That happened to me in early versions of PA--navigating away or minimizing PA would cause it to crash. I presume it was a memory leak of some kind. Are you minimizing PA? Or how is your memory usage during that time? Does PA crash during the copy or as you switch windows like in my case?

Yes, I am minimizing PA. This happens when I copy something from the Formula Area, switch to a Text Editor window and paste it. After that PA Studio crashes.
I will investigate the memory usage. Thanks for the advice.

As you are a Microsoft employee please contact us via internal channels (either via the PowerApps Support DL or the Yammer group) so we can investigate further.
