i got a loop detected error which has disabled any clipboard actions

is there a way to crash and restart path copy copy? i got a loop detected error which has disabled any clipboard actions.

don't want to restart the pc.

Created a custom action which was supposed to add double quotes to file basenames, then i switched from newlines per path to , multiple paths on the sameline , then the loop error occurred and reverting the option does not make path copy copy useable so either i restart the pc or restart the shell/path copy copy service?

This sounds like a bug, but I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "loop detected". That doesn't sound like an error coming from Path Copy Copy. Could you perhaps share a screenshot of the error message?

There is no Path Copy Copy "service" per se. The main component is embedded in Windows Explorer, so you could kill and restart explorer.exe if you wanted. The Settings application can also be safely killed and restarted if that is the issue.
