I’m on Sequoia, and the editor (and your file) appear to be working just fine here…

If we can find out how to reliably recreate the issue here, we can get it fixed for you. Are you both on Tahoe maybe?

Tahoe as well. But to be honest I have not run into this problem since upgrading to 1.4.0. But then I have not been doing as much editing in the code editor in Elements, I now do most of mine in Nova.

Same paste code into html editor freezes the html editor. ❌  
EDIT: No it’s not, its when you reselect the html component (see video below).

I’m Tahoe too.
