Start your computer with a minimal startup configration

@Ramhound I was very much hoping your suggestion would help me discover an interfering program, but the problem persists after following these clean boot instructions.

It has helped you. You have narrowed it down to the application that start with even the minimal startup configuration. That decreases the possible choices by a good amount. For instance there is a good 50-60 process different between a normal startup and a minimal startup in most of my devices.

Good point. I'm surprised by this outcome since I am not running any special Visual Studio extensions, only the defaults that come with Visual Studio Express 2013 for Web Update 4. I will try uninstalling those one by one to see if it makes a difference. @Ramhound do you have any other suggestions at this point?

The source of my issue was Webroot Application Protection. Apparently it watches the clipboard and prevents pasting to certain applications. In my case, Application Protection defaulted to denying pasting to Visual Studio. Changing the setting for vwdexpress.exe to either Allow or Protect permits pasting to VS.
The moral of the story for me is to be mindful when installing security software. You never know what unexpected side-effects it might have. It also likely won't be disabled when clean booting.
