Good afternoon Kaz
I suggest you install mate-terminal and try from that. If that works,
compare the preferences and check out a few options that I've not found in
gnome-terminal, like auto copy highlighted text to clipboard.
I don't recall trying to copy into win10, so I can't answer that
specifically
