I installed vim on Windows 10 with chocolatey. Copy and Paste don't work when I invoke vim in powershell. I expect them to work as long as I'm in insert mode. How can I make copy and paste work?

Open vim and type the following:
:edit $MYVIMRC
This will edit your .vimrc file wherever it might live. (On my system, it was in c:\Users\<my_username>\.vimrc, but you might have weird configuration issues, so just let vim find the file for you.
Then, copy+paste the following into the file:
source $VIMRUNTIME/mswin.vim
behave mswin
Then save the file.
