How to force copy?

[tomatitus1]

I'm using a program that shows me text that I would like to copy, and I can select it, but CTRL+C doesn't copy anything, and I am unable to right-click on the text.

Are there any programs or tricks that would allow me to copy the text?

I did some research online but all I found was people asking about the same thing in web browsers, and fixing it by disabling javascript, but my problem is not in a web browser.

If anyone knows a solution to this, I would really appreciate the help.

Check to make sure there is not a built in copy function in the program you're using.  I might even be in a menu

Write a program that take a screen shot of where the text comes up (or take a screenshot) and then go to google image anaylizer and put in your picture, that will pull out all the text!!! I feel like a badass.

That would work if the text wasn't so large it doesn't fit in the window and I would need to take probably 50+ pictures and rebuild it manually... Thanks though!

Zoom out or print screen?

You could try increasing the resolution. But realistically, I don't think there's an easy way to accomplish what you want to do.
