Here (https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/5707) I got told by Andrew David Wong that it is needed to delete the “#” sign on the edited lines to change their status from a comment to a script that is going to be executed. So here are the steps to change the key combination for secure copy and paste: 1. Write this in the dom0 terminal (you might have to use root access): nano etc/qubes/guid.conf 2. Change “Ctrl-Shift-c” to for example “Shift-Mod4-c” (Mod4 is the Win key) 3. Change “Ctrl-Shift-v” to for example “Shift-Mod4-v” 4. Delete the “#” sign in the beginning of this/these line(s) (to change there status to a executive script). 5. Save the file by pressing Ctrl + X, press Y and then Enter. 6. Restart the pc to begin using the new key combination for secure copy and paste. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
