Description

[Paste Support Command.zip](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/23466111/Paste.Support.Command.zip)

**Describe the bug**

This is one of my commands, which is set to a global hotkey of Ctrl + Alt + V, as I use this a lot.
This command and others with similar formatting take between 5-10 seconds to execute.

copyq:
var otext = str(clipboard())
var text = str(otext) + str('?support=true')
text = text.replace(' ', '')
copy(text)
paste()
copy(otext)

This has always been a little slow, however when my computer updated to Windows 11, this seems to have gotten significantly worse.

**To Reproduce**

1. Copy some text, like Bing.com.
2. In a new browser window, click in the URL bar and press the global hotkey, Control + Alt + V.
3. 5-7 seconds later bing.com?support=true will be pasted.

**Expected behavior**

I am not sure what an expected delay is from starting a command with CopyQ, however 5-7 seconds seems longer than necessary.

**Screenshots**

I'm sorry it's hard to take screenshots, as the CopyQ windows turn blank when I try to screenshot them.
I've recreated the Process Manager information Below:
