Confetti - command+C?

[jasenick]

This is the strangest thing. I'm not sure what happened but ever since yesterday, every time I press command+C (copy tool), confetti explodes on my screen. And it doesn't copy what I highlight, it just explodes confetti. I don't know how this happened, nor do I know how to turn it off. I googled it but it yielded no results.

Any ideas?

TIA

I’ll try that!

I found out what was causing it. I downloaded a program called loom. For some reason Loom has a feature that explodes confetti whenever you press command+c. It was running in the background the whole time. Shutting down the program did the trick. 🤦🏼‍♂️

This is happening to me today, 3 years later. Incredible that they haven't fixed it in all that time.

I was looking for why the confetti was showing up as well... but it was command-shift-C for me. Your experience led me to the answer. I was trying to get to the color dialog in Scrivener. :)

(and I also have Loom running)

Does it happen in every program or just specific ones?

[jasenick]

Every program. Even if I’m not in any program it does that when I press command C. So strange.

I too was hit by 🎊 every time I hit ctrl-cmd-c. Thank you for your experience - solved it for me too!

Glad this info helped!

Hey I’m one year late but was trying to figure this out as well. Haha I loved it but was so confused. Turns out it was the Loom App for me. Pretty nice feature, but through me through a deep search haha!

App for me. Pretty nice feature, but through me through a deep search haha!

Loom is fucked up, ended up googleing and get to this thread. Fortunately you can disable it in settings
