Description of the new feature/enhancement

Now, when I copy texture in a windows terminal, and then paste it in some place like discourse comments, the prefix "Windows Terminal" will added. e.g. if I copy "hello", what will paste in discoure is:

Windows Terminal

hello

which is quite troublesome, because I need delete this prefix by hand.
What I want is to remove prefix and only texture be pasted.
I also noticed that when paste in some place (like here), the prefix is gone. So this behavior may related to the place where to pasted.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
