How to paste from clipboard into KiTTY SSH terminal window?

Multi tool use
I use KiTTY (a PuTTY derivative) to access SSH servers from a Windows PC. But I can't find how to paste text from Windows clipboard into KiTTY SSH console (neither Ctrl+V, nor Ctrl+Shift+V seem to work, and there does not seem to be Copy/Paste commands in the window's context menu). Maybe you know?

Right-click somewhere inside the terminal window.
I pasted "administrator" by right-clicking somewhere inside the terminal window. (The black area)
Thanks. I've seen this, but thought it only pastes what is selected inside the KiTTY window itself.

Copy and paste works similarly to the X Window System.
You use the left mouse button to select text in the PuTTY window.
The act of selection automatically copies the text to the clipboard: there is no need to press Ctrl-Ins or Ctrl-C or anything else.
The only thing you need to do, to copy text to the clipboard, is to select it.
To paste the clipboard contents into a PuTTY window, by default you click the right mouse button.
You can also paste by pressing Shift-Ins.
