Hi, Bin, thank you for your great work.
My question is that M-w doesn't copy region on my Windows PC.
Here is my environment:
Windows 8.1 without cygwin
Emacs 24.5.1
and I disabled evil.

I'm not sure if it's a bug or not. Could you help me to find out what's the problem is?

copied to kill-ring, but not clipboard, that's default behavior of Emacs,
on my setup it's mapped to kill-ring-save, has nothing to do with evil.

emacs 24.4.1 on windows xp

But when I tried to display the command name run by M-w, I could not see this map. In fact it seems that my key press isn't captured when I pressed C-h ? C and then M-w. This bottom line is still waiting for me to describe key.

Describe key (or click or menu item):

And when I display all the key bindings, I could neither see M-w mapped to kill-ring-save, but this:

kill-ring-save
kill-ring-save

Yes, you're right. It's used by QQ. Thank you very much, Bin.
