Working perfectly but "paste on middle click" option not working in my system.
Rene Lucha
A recent update made this useless. It doesn’t always copy and the popup system notification is delayed about 5 seconds after coped. I've had this for years, but I'm uninstalling.
Riaz Ali
there's something wrong with this addon, it acts wonky and keeps saying to reload the page, but even after reloading it keeps asking to reload again. It doesn't always copy text when it should, it's broken
mingilou
since the last version nothing is going well, please fix it

This extension was broken and I was told to repair it, so after repairing it, I no longer was able to paste the text by middle clicking the mouse, which is extremely inconvenient.

it is not showing the notification and when it does, is delayed and then slows down chrome. Every time I copy text it slows down and the pop-up says "Auto Copy extension has been updated. The page needs to be reloaded in order for it to work." I have rebooted chrome, hence pages "reloaded"  Also, highlighting or double clicking text does not copy. Used to love it and hope this can be fixed
Nazmul Hossain
Working just fine. Thanks. Please add Mouse Wheal/Middle Button to paste that copy.

Auto Copy is back. I tried others and I'm glad you updated it to keep it in the store.

Thank you. it's worked again

where is this update? a warning has appeared from Google like this "This extension is no longer available because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions." There are still many who need this "Auto Copy" extension which is actually good.

Please add an option to trim spaces on left and right edges. FUCK GOOGLE!

Please update, I cannot live without the double click copy, and middle mouseclick paste anymore :)

Love this extension. Almost perfect, the only improvement needed is to not copy extra space at the end of the copied word so like when you paste it into password box, it keeps failing until I realized there was an extra space after the last letter.

Great! It will append the source url where you got some copied text, so you always know where it came from, if you need to go back and check for more detail

An extension that works.
Waldemar Jezler
excellent extension, I use it all the time. have been using it for years now, no problems very simple but has many options to customize, you can fine tune it to exactly what you need. VERY sad if Chrome removes it from store!!

had been using this extension for quite some time and got used to it .. and i use clipboard history extension as well.. both these recently crashed.. i thot it was a memory issue.. only recently i noticed that chrome says "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions." Chrome please reconsider your decision

Thank you! This works perfectly for me. * The fact that it is customize-able is a big plus * Linux (what I use) applications usually copy text when highlighted. This nudges Linux chrome to behave as it should * Saves needless SHIFT-DELETE or CTRL-C actions, saving keyboard life (500 copies is 500 click-drags, not 500 clicks and 1000 keys) cuts workload in half. * May say it doesn't work on recent versions of chrome, but it does. They are planning on taking away the ability to do this, we should all boycott that. * Prevents me from needing to write a script to do this that may not get along with other programs So far, no cons, just pros. You have to edit the setup and reload your tabs before you start using it. This is the proper way IMO since working right off the bat would probably be more exploitable. Keep using! I was surprised how cleanly it works, no delays or anything and very easy to use.

Very useful extension. Thanks a lot.

I really like this add-on and find it very useful. However, it doesn't always work on the AWS (Amazon Web Services) console.

I am really satisfied and it has always worked properly

Very helpful in my daily life! Just wanted to come here and say thank you~🫡

Very useful when it works. I have to reload this extension constantly. Something makes it crash and all features are disabled until it is reloaded. Some days that happens just a few times, other days it goes through multiple waves where it crashes 5 times in a span of a just a few minutes. It's aggravating, but in the end it is still a useful tool.

Copy-to-clipboard worked, but mouse middle-click pasting did not. [Windows 10, Vivaldi 6.4]

Copia a palavra selecionada automaticamente, mas não guarda um histórico. Apenas mantém a última palavra selecionada copiada. Seria útil se copiasse e mantesse todos os textos copiados num clipboard pra ser colado posteriormente tudo de uma vez.

This was amazing until recently. It doesn't always copy like it used to. It's a hit or miss now.
