Command + C does not always work from the first try in Microsoft Word (Office 2011)
This issue is real and I think every mac user experience it on a weekly basis, but likely people continue to doubt themselves over if they actually command c or not properly.
The fix. If you are using Karabiner like real hacker should:
Just add this to your karabiner complex configurations:
[
    {
        &quot;from&quot;: {
            &quot;key_code&quot;: &quot;c&quot;,
            &quot;modifiers&quot;: {
                &quot;mandatory&quot;: [
                    &quot;left_command&quot;
                ]
            }
        },
        &quot;to&quot;: [
            {
                &quot;key_code&quot;: &quot;c&quot;,
                &quot;modifiers&quot;: [
                    &quot;left_command&quot;
                ]
            },
            {
                &quot;key_code&quot;: &quot;c&quot;,
                &quot;modifiers&quot;: [
                    &quot;left_command&quot;
                ]
            },
            {
                &quot;key_code&quot;: &quot;c&quot;,
                &quot;modifiers&quot;: [
                    &quot;left_command&quot;
                ]
            }
        ],
        &quot;type&quot;: &quot;basic&quot;
    }
]

Now that should make the copy flash a few times in the menu.
You can increase or decrease as much as you want. Personally I have a few more.
