**Description of the issue:**  
Brave _SOMETIMES_ chrashes when I use the clipboard (Ctrl-V, Ctrl-C)

**How can this issue be reproduced?**  
_Scenario Paste_

1. Go to any other application
2. Mark a URL and press Ctrl-C
3. Go to Brave and click in the address-line
4. Press Ctrl-V

_Scenario Cut_

1. Go to Brave, and click the address-line
2. Mark the URL
3. Press Ctrl-C

**Expected result:**  
The URL is copied to or pasted from the clipboard

**What happens**  
In both scenarios I experience, that Brave hangs, and after a few seconds, it closes completely down and I have to restart Brave, if I need it.

**Exceptions**  
I have not seen the bug when using the mouse (right-click → copy/paste)

**Brave Version( check `About Brave`):**  
Version 1.67.123 Chromium: 126.0.6478.126 (Officiel version) (64-bit)  
Running on Windows 10 - fully updated

_I still see the problem in:_  
`Version 1.68.137 Chromium: 127.0.6533.100 (Officiel version) (64-bit)`

**Additional Information:**  
I don’t experience this problem in Firefox or other browsers, like the clipboard works perfectly in other scenarios.  
I have not tried this in other OS’es
