This is an error that has been plauging me for a VERY long time and it's getting beyond the pale, so I thought I'd come and ask here.

Basically whenever I hit Prt Scr to Screenshot anything on my computer Photoshop doesn't allow me to paste it into a canvas, I know it's in my clipboard because I can paste it into other programs. Annoyingly I have to paste the image I want into paint and then open the bmp in Photoshop, which is just awful.

I have Photoshop CS. Photoshop version is: Adobe Photoshop Version: 8.0 (8.0x118).

Please do help a fellow Photoshopper out!
Thanks.

How are you trying to paste it? Not that it should make any difference.... Ctrl+V?

Are you in RGB (you should be) or CMYK or Lab?

Oh and welcome to the forums Smashman

Well I've tried a few ways. When I start a new Document, you can sometimes select Clipboard for a size. That doesn't work, and then yes Ctrl+V, or I check Edit > Paste, but that doesn't work either.

It's all rather restricting. Please do help out!
