On a straight box - that doesn't work either.
The select all does, but paste yanked something from hours ago.

Once you have Quick Edit enabled, paste will work using right-click. If
it got something from hours ago, then that must be the last time you
copied anything to the real clipboard. Note that some applications use
a private clipboard to give extra features (like multiple clipboxes).
But I suspect your real problem is you thought you did a copy to the
clipboard from the DOS box, and you did not.
When you drag the mouse over the box, you *select* text, but do not copy
it to the clipboard. That doesn't happen till your right-click.
Then *another* right-click without anything selected will insert that
new text into the command line.
Try the following on a DOS box (after enabling Quick Edit).
Double-click on a "word". Then right click *twice* to get it to the
command line.
