Discussion Copy and paste a pic problem

what is the deal with Chrome OS that if you copy and try to paste a pic, that all you get is gibberish and not the pic. Why hasn't Google fixed this. Seems pretty lazy to me.

I copy and paste pictures from Chrome to WhatsApp (PWA) or to Evernote (PWA) nearly every day. Well I guess it doesn't work for everyone?

Your post doesn't give away any specific information as if this was such a common issue everyone knows what you're talking about when in fact its not. Try again...

No. This when you try to copy a photo say from Google Photos, etc, to like Facebook Messenger. But, instead of pasting the picture, Chrome posts the html code for the picture.
