Update Notepad++ to the latest version.

Also try it without plugins to see if it is a plugin causing it. To disable plugins temporarily, you can launch it through the command line:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe" -noPlugin

I can reproduce it in 7.8.8 too. Without plugins. The endless loop (?) seems to be in Scintilla.
_callWindowProc(_scintillaDefaultProc, hwnd, Message, wParam, lParam); never returns from the PASTE key combination.

Rectangular selections don't work well with word wrap on anyway. See issue #5684.
