Scenario :
1. the windows scratchpad contents is defined in Windows file explorer with multiple file selections ( copy or copy as access path )
2. user invokes PWP file open transformation or File Open List transformation
3. user types Cntrl-V for pasting the scratchpad contents into the file open dialog.
Effect :
PWP only opens one of the files from the scratchpad. The other files are ignored
Desired behavior :
PWP opens all files that are contained in the scratchpad
Issue : opening multiple files via windows scratchpad

Re: Issue : opening multiple files via windows scratchpad
It looks like this is a problem with Windows and not PWP -- on the clipboard, pathnames are separated by newlines whereas the File Open dialog box uses spaces. Instead of using cut and paste, you should be able to use drag and drop to open multiple files.
