When pasting images to WhatsApp from PasteEx, images tend to get discarded after sending. However, if you paste the image to a file on your desktop and copy the file before sending it to WhatsApp, WhatsApp won’t discard the image after sending it. Reproducible steps:

1. Take a screenshot on Windows using win + shift + s
2. Paste it to Paint or any other image editor
3. Save the image as a file on your desktop
4. Copy the file
5. Paste it to WhatsApp
6. Send it
7. The message will not be sent and become discarded without any error message showing.
