omg this works, do you know how to fix it to be just cmd v?

Bless you. This works.

Same issue on windows. Cursor can not read attached files, and wont let me paste directly into the chat box. When I try to copy and paste into the chat box, Cursor auto attaches it. This is a game changer for me as I am new to coding and need this. I have wasted so much credit through this. Please fix this as it was not happening before.
