hello! i've changed pp from
5.1.04c to v.5.3_37unicode(5.3.37h1)

and when i hit my shortcut
*Clip MenuPaste shows Clip txt antries as usual
but when i select one of them
while a text editor is in foreground
nothing happens.
then i hit Ctrl+v and selected item is pasted as it should be.
I've tried different text editors.

I have had this issue as well. I don't have a fix (the same issue occurs in r1) but using the following as the command in response to the hotkey works for me:
Exec MoreCommandsasscript


More commands:


local e = win.exename("under")
clip menu
if (e=="winword" || e== "excel") do
keys {to under}^v
else
keys ^v
endif

Actually, on further testing, it seems the issue for me was ms office stuff. clip.menupaste still works for notepad++, pspad, and notepad as well as chrome and vc 2015 (testiend in h1 with unicode support on).

If you have not done so already, before doing the workaround (unless you need it for ms office), try including
exec.showmethod(1) as startup scheduled event.

No, on my PC there is no MS Office.

OK, I am not sure where you see the situation. So just to be clear: I cannot duplicate the error so I am afraid I cannot help except with these two suggestions:
1. Ensure exec.showmethod(I) is startup event in powerproscheduler.
2. If that does not help, try some variation of workaround script.

I receive
"Cannot find window to change or to send keys to" often

Hm, Scite, my favourite editor, bahaves like MS Word, so
clip menu
keys {to under}^v
is sufficient.
