Windows 10: clipboard issue

Am having the worst time of my life because am hugely dependent on the clipboard.It works for a short period of time then it stops very rarely randomlyI read here on Reddit that if I have a running app in the background to prevent the device from going into idle state, clipboard would work normally. But it didn’t.I also tried the registry editor values change and addition, but nothing seem to work!Anyone here faced the same issue and resolved it?

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

 

Pasting from clipboard

Thank you, The first suggestion worked. The second did also provided I did not click in the Paint window first.

I'd spent some time trying to work it out for myself but was fooled by the clipboard window always closing prematurely. So thanks again.

Also thanks to Frederick, although solved, I've noted your alternative suggestion.

If you're experiencing issues with clipboard functionality and want to turn it off temporarily for troubleshooting, you can try the following steps in Windows:

2. Check Clipboard Settings:
   
   • Go to Windows Settings by pressing .Win + I
     
   • Navigate to "System" > "Clipboard."
     
   • Make sure the "Clipboard history" toggle is set to "Off."
     
3. Clear Clipboard History:
   
   • If you suspect there might be a conflicting or problematic item in your clipboard history, you can clear it.
     
   • Open the clipboard history with and click the "Clear All" button.Win + V
     
4. Restart Clipboard Service:
   
   • Press to open the Task Manager.Ctrl + Shift + Esc

   • In the Services window, find "Clipboard User Service" again, right-click it, and choose "Restart."
     
5. Check for Software Conflicts:
   
   • Sometimes, third-party software can interfere with clipboard functionality. Try temporarily disabling or uninstalling any recently installed software to see if it resolves the issue.
     
6. Check for Malware:
   
   • Malware can also affect clipboard functionality. Run a full system scan with your antivirus or antimalware software to ensure your system is clean.
     
7. Create a New User Profile:
   
   • If the issue persists, try creating a new user profile in Windows. This can help identify if the problem is specific to your user account. Please refer to: Create a local user or administrator account in Windows - Microsoft Support
