This plugin is actually not very useful to either Linux or Windows 10 anymore.
It adds the following:

If selected text & shift-middleMouse,                         paste selected text at current cursor position(like Linux).
If selected text & shift-middleMouse inside selection,  copy to clipboard(like ctrl-c).
If selected text & shift-switch editor,                          copy selection to clipboard.
If selected text & shift-ctrl-middleMouse inside selection,  overwrite selection with clipboard data.
If no selected text & Shift-middleMouse,                    paste clipboard data at cursor position(like ctrl-v).

It was very useful before windows 10 added the primary paste feature (like Linux).
If it's not needed anymore, and if it's permissible, I vote to remove it.

Really? They've done that everywhere? In all apps?

no, I can't get it to work in notepad.
Edit: I must be wrong about this. I can't get Atom to middle-mouse paste either.

oBFusCATed:
We have code in scintilla which does middle click handling, but it should be gtk only.
Does it work in textctrls and similar native controls in Code::Blocks?

Pecan:
No, middleMouse (primary) paste does not work in wxTextCtrls on MSWindows.

I've made a very ignorant assumption.
I did not know about the addition of middleMouse code in wxScintilla.

But middleMouse pasting does work in CB on MSWindows using wxWidgets/wxScintilla.
