Question posted in 
I’m experiencing a significant delay whenever I paste text into Visual Studio Code. It can take multiple seconds before the pasted text appears, making editing almost unusable.
I have captured a short GIF to illustrate the behavior:
What I’ve tried so far
- Reset all my settings
- Removed AI extensionsGitHub Copilot).
Despite these attempts, the delay persists.
Additional details
- VS Code version: 1.96.2
- Operating system: windows 11 with wsl
Question
- Has anyone experienced this issue or found a way to fix it?
- Are there known conflicts with certain extensions or specific VS Code settings that cause paste delays?

I’ve got same issue. Its typical JavaScript project with ESLint and TypeScript without any extra plugins.
If you have the setting that "updates imports on paste" enabled, that’s probably your issue, see this issue report.
