I recently factory reset my laptop running Windows 10, and now every time I use Ctrl+V, it pastes something that looks like a crash dump from this directory: C:UsersmypcusernameAppDataLocalTempPRODUCT_NAME_UNKNOWN_CrashDumpPRODUCT_VERSION_MAJOR_UNKNOWN-PRODUCT_VERSION_MINOR_UNKNOWN-2025-08-14--03-30-45_.dmp. I want to stop this from happening. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Factory resets can be pretty problematic and aren't usually recommended. They often create more issues than they solve. A clean installation of Windows might be the way to go, but let's see if we can fix this specific problem first.
I get that, but can you help me fix the current issue?
Thank you so much! Sorry for the delay, I was trying the suggested methods and now my paste is empty. I can actually use most things now; I just need to update back to Windows 11 since the factory reset kind of left me in a bad spot.
