Windows 10: Windows 10 / Copy Paste to Word Apps / Characters replaced

When copy from clipboard e.g from German PDF to Word/Apps umlauts are replaced by another characters. In my case it was Russian Cyrillic characters. Than I changed in regional settings Control Panel, Win 10 system language to English/Deutsch. Didn’t help. I still see Gesprдch instead of Gespräch. It’s really annoying and I didn’t find any help googling. Any chance someone knows how to set up system? Thank you a lot!

Windows 10 v1803 cannot copy paste Chinese characters

I don't know why, It's strange!!!

1. Every time I restarted my PC. Open a Notepad, input some Chinese characters with some English characters. Then, copy and paste them in Notepad, find that only English characters are copied while Chinese characters are lost. Then open the Microsoft Word
2016, the situation is the same, copy paste will lost non-English characters.

2. I tried following step, then the Windows 10 can copy and paste Chinese characters.

• Press the 'Windows + R' keys together

• In the 'Open' window input 'WinWord /a', and press Enter.

Then the Microsoft Word was opened. I input some Chinese characters with some English characters, and then copy and paste them, found that Chinese characters can be copied!!! Then I closed Word, opened the Notepad again, inputted some
Chinese characters with some English characters, found that Chinese characters also could be copied in Notepad!!!

I don't know why, It's so strange!!!

 

copy - pastes only "(" character

I occasionally get a problem of copy/paste where no matter what I copy from any app or program (image or text) the paste into the target app, program or text or word or excel only pastes the '(' character and not the copied image or text.

I read once upon a search for this type of error that it may have been a logitech keyboard error?

I do use a logitech mouse, but not keyboard. This issue is not fun, as I use copy/paste heavily.

Most of time the problem goes away after a reboot. but of course I am in the middle of project with many windows open, docs, web sites, ...

to reboot is time consuming.

Anyone have any idea where I can start to look for some reason or solution to this strange issue?

problem is same using keyboard ctrl-c / ctrl-v or mouse copy/paste = same results.

could clipboard be corrupted?

thanks
