I am unsure if this is intended however as I have been developing apps on this platform and encounter bugs that I cannot solve I want to copy an error message and see if I can find a solution. However no matter what I do I cannot copy and paste error messages. Am I missing something or is this how the platform was designed?

How to copy error messages?

I found a very neat workaround for this.

1) press windows+shift+ s to screenshot the error then paste in OneNote
2) right click the "pasted screenshot" in OneNote and select "Copy text from picture"
3) now you have the error message in your clipboard. :)

Hi

without a picture of what you are referring too we can’t help

I’ve never had an issue copying the errors, however happy to help if you can share what you mean.
