Cannot open clipboard windows 10

The blog of Windows Wally, a Windows Support Technician helping common people solve frustrating computer problems.



Reader Question:
“Hi Wally, I upgraded by laptop to Windows 10, and ever since then I have not been able to use the “copy and paste feature”. I can’t copy anything or paste it. I tried doing it with the keyboard command and I tried doing it with the mouse. So far, neither are working. Please help.“ — J H., USA

Before addressing any computer issue, I always recommend scanning and repairing any underlying problems affecting your PC health and performance:

  • Step 1 : Download PC Repair & Optimizer Tool (WinThruster for Win 10, 8, 7, Vista, XP and 2000 – Microsoft Gold Certified).
  • Step 2 : Click “Start Scan” to find Windows registry issues that could be causing PC problems.
  • Step 3 : Click “Repair All” to fix all issues.

Setting up weekly (or daily) automatic scans will help prevent system problems and keep your PC running fast and trouble-free.

Wally’s Answer: Windows 10 has been installed by millions of users. Most users have been able to use Windows 10 normally while some have also encountered problems. The clipboard problem is pretty annoying and we’ve outlined some ways to help fix it.

Problem

The copy and paste features are not working with some or all programs since upgrading to Windows 10. The following error appears with some programs when trying to copy or paste using the keyboard or mouse:

“Cannot open the clipboard”.

Solution

Here are some ways to fix the ”Cannot open the clipboard” error in Windows 10:

Use The sfc /scannow Command To Repair Damaged or Missing System Files

As the title states, running this command replaces missing and damaged system files.

Press Windows Key+X to see a menu appear on the lower-right corner of the screen. Click Command Prompt (Admin) from the list as shown below

Type the sfc command in Command Prompt and press Enter

sfc /scannow

Clipboard - sfc scannow - 2 -- Windows Wally

Use a PowerShell Command

The copy-paste clipboard feature might be failing due to a constantly refreshing Windows app. This command fixes this problem by re-registering Windows apps.

Press the Windows Key and type powershell. 

Right-Click Powershell from the list of results, and click Run as administrator, to open an elevated PowerShell as shown below:

You can copy the command, and right-clicking in the Powershell Window to paste it. If that doesn’t work, then you’ll need to carefully type the command instead. Press Enter to run the command.

Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}

Check For Windows Upgrades

Press the Windows Key and type update. Click Check for updates

Look at the options and make sure that Windows is updated. These Windows updates can fix known issues like the clipboard problem.

Use Windows Recovery To Fix the Clipboard in Windows 10

Try using the Windows recovery feature if none of the above fixes the problem. Windows recovery will not delete personal files, but it will delete all installed software. Click here to learn more.

If you want to copy important data before using Windows recovery, then you can try booting your computer with a live Linux disk. This should allow you to run Linux without installing it. Click here to watch a video tutorial on how to make a bootable Linux USB or DVD.

Если вы не можете скопировать текст с сайта, потому что он не выделяется или не помещается в буфер обмена, читайте статью по ссылке ниже. Она подойдет тем пользователям, у кого в Windows проблем с буфером обмена нет, просто не удается скопировать текст с конкретной интернет-страницы.

Подробнее: Копирование защищенного текста на сайтах

Способ 1: Сброс процесса rdpclip.exe

Для начала попробуйте сбросить процесс rdpclip.exe, отвечающий за буфер обмена удаленного рабочего стола, который позволяет удаленному ПК и локальному хосту использовать инструмент совместно.

  1. Откройте «Диспетчер задач», используя сочетание клавиш «Ctrl + Shift + Esc». Перейдите на вкладку «Подробности» и в списке процессов найдите «rdpclip.exe». При необходимости можно упорядочить названия по алфавиту, нажав на строку «Имя». Щелкните правой кнопкой мыши по названию процесса и выберите пункт «Завершить дерево процессов»
  2. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-01

  3. После чего потребуется вновь запустить средство. Нажмите на вкладку «Файл» и выберите опцию «Запустить новую задачу».
  4. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-02

  5. В новом окне пропишите «rdpclip.exe», поставьте галочку у опции создания задачи с правами администратора и кликните по кнопке «ОК».
  6. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-03

Способ 2: Перезапуск «Проводника»

Прежде чем перезапускать «Проводник» Windows, завершите все процессы и сохраните всю работу, поскольку выполнение этого способа закроет все окна и приложения.

Чтобы перезагрузить «Проводник», можно воспользоваться функциями «Диспетчера задач». На вкладке «Процессы» найдите его и щелкните правой кнопкой мыши по названию. Из контекстного меню выберите пункт «Перезапустить».

Способ 3: Очистка истории буфера обмена

Исправить ошибку, из-за которой не работает функция копирования и вставки в Windows 10, может помочь очистка истории файлов кеша и буфера обмена:

  1. Вызовите системный инструмент «Командная строка» с расширенными правами. Для этого через поиск в «Пуске» введите нужный запрос, затем выберите пункт «Запуск от имени администратора».
  2. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-05

  3. В открывшемся окне пропишите команду echo off | clip и нажмите на клавишу «Enter», чтобы начать процедуру очистки.
  4. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-006

После выполнения операции проверьте, работает ли буфер обмена. Если очистка мусорных данных не помогла, переходите к следующим рекомендациям.

Способ 4: Средство устранения неполадок

Когда буфер обмена не работает при использовании специальных сочетаний клавиш на клавиатуре, то программные ошибки в работе оборудования идентифицируются с помощью штатного средства для устранения неполадок:

  1. Запустите приложение «Параметры», щелкнув по иконке Windows на нижней рабочей панели и выбрав нужный пункт в виде шестеренки.
  2. Перейдите в раздел «Обновление и безопасность» в новом окне.
  3. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-08

  4. На панели слева сначала щелкните по пункту «Устранение неполадок», затем по строке «Дополнительные средства устранения неполадок».
  5. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-09

  6. В отобразившемся списке кликните ЛКМ по строке «Клавиатура» и нажмите на появившуюся кнопку для запуска инструмента.
  7. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-10

Если есть программные или аппаратные проблемы с клавиатурой, то после анализа работы оборудования отобразятся варианты решения ошибок.

Способ 5: Редактирование реестра

Исправление работы буфера обмена доступно через встроенный инструмент Windows – «Редактор реестра»:

  1. Вызовите «Редактор реестра» от имени администратора, введя соответствующий запрос в строке поиска.
  2. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-11

  3. Через каталоги на панели слева пройдите по пути: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Clipboard. В главном окне дважды щелкните по параметру «IsCloudAndHistoryFeatureAvailable», чтобы открыть его свойства.
  4. не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-12

  5. В разделе «Система исчисления» должен быть отмечен пункт «Шестнадцатеричная», а в строке «Значение» впишите цифру «1». Сохраните настройки, нажав на кнопку «ОК».

После внесения правок через «Редактор реестра» лучше перезагрузить компьютер, затем проверить, заработал ли буфер обмена.

Способ 6: Отключение приложений для оптимизации ОЗУ

Приложения, которые оптимизируют работу оперативной памяти, могут блокировать работу буфера обмена для улучшения производительности системы, поскольку все скопированные данные временно хранятся в ОЗУ, что нагружает компонент. Если на ПК установлены и используются такие программы, то попробуйте их на время отключить и проверить, заработала ли функция копирования/вставки.

Метод деактивации зависит от установленного софта. Некоторые из них отключаются с помощью нажатия правой кнопкой мыши по иконке в трее и выбора соответствующего пункта. Также можно использовать «Диспетчер задач»: запустить его и на вкладке «Процессы» отыскать приложение, оптимизирующее ОЗУ, затем выделить его название левой кнопкой мыши и выбрать кнопку «Снять задачу».

не работает буфер обмена в windows 10-14

Способ 7: Удаление вирусов

Сканирование системы на наличие вирусного ПО и удаление вредоносных утилит могут помочь убрать некоторые ошибки в работе ОС. Вирусы действуют по-разному, поэтому они могут коснуться и встроенных средств, включая буфер обмена Windows 10.

Проверьте систему на наличие вредоносного ПО вручную. Сделать это можно с помощью портативных средств, которые не требуют установки, а также полноценных антивирусных программных пакетов. Кроме того, в ОС предусмотрен свой инструмент для обеспечения безопасности. В нашем отдельном материале описаны способы проверки компьютера с Windows 10 и методы удаления опасного софта.

    in Windows 10 Customization

    Clipboard not opening: My clipboard on windows 10 is not opening. I went to the clipboard settings and turned it on but when I do win + v the clipboard does not open. Any help would be appreciated….

Quick Tips

  • It’s important to ensure that Windows Clipboard is enabled from the Settings and that no third-party apps are interfering with it.
  • In most cases, a simple restart of the Windows Explorer might suffice.
  • You can check the Windows Registry and the Group Policy Settings to ensure everything is configured properly.

Basic Fixes

  • Update Windows: Before starting, make sure that you’re running the latest version of Windows. Chances are that the issue you’re facing was simply a bug, which Microsoft might have already resolved in their latest update. Simply head over to Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates.
  • Uninstall 3rd-party apps: If you’re using a third-party clipboard manager, that might be causing issues with the Windows Clipboard. As such, you should try uninstalling any third-party apps that use the Clipboard, but you no longer rely on them.
  • Check for Malware: It’s also possible that your system is infected by malware. Make sure to download an antivirus on your PC to check for the same.

Fix 1: Switch on Clipboard History

For the Clipboard to function, it’s important to ensure that the Clipboard History feature is turned on. While the setting is enabled by default, you might have turned it off by mistake. To fix it, simply head over to Settings > System > Clipboard. Here, enable the toggle next to Clipboard history.

Enable Clipboard History

Once enabled, test it by pressing the Windows key + V shortcut. If it was a simple issue of the clipboard history not working, this simple tweak should solve it.

Fix 2: Restart Windows Explorer

The issue may also be due to Windows Explorer not working properly. While you can easily fix it with a simple reboot, that might not be the best solution if you have ongoing work or important documents open. Thankfully, you can simply restart the Windows Explorer to fix this.

Step 1: Press the Ctrl + Shift + Esc keys to launch the Task Manager.

Step 2: Switch to the Details tab, and find ‘explorer.exe‘. Simply right-click on it, and select ‘End Task‘.

End Task Explorer

Step 3: Now, press the Windows + R keys to launch the Run window. Here, enter ‘explorer.exe‘ and press Enter.

Relaunch Explorer

And that’s it. This should restart the Windows Explorer process, and your clipboard issue should be resolved.

Fix 3: Clear Clipboard Data

It’s possible that there is a lot of data stored in the clipboard, which might be causing issues. As such, a simple fix is to clear the clipboard data and start afresh.

To do that, simply press the Windows key + V shortcut on your keyboard to summon the Clipboard. Now, click on Clear All to remove all clipboard history.

Clear All Windows Clipboard

Fix 4: Check Group Policy Setting

So, if the above trick does not solve your issue, it’s time to delve a little deeper into the advanced settings, aka Group Policy. If you must know, Windows Group Policy has a variety of advanced settings that can be tweaked to adjust settings on a local computer, provided you know your way around them.

Step 1: To summon the Group Policy window, search for Gpedit.msc in the Start Menu.

2 How To Fix Windows Clipboard Not Working On Windows 10 3

Step 2: Launch it and click on Computer Configuration.

How To Fix Windows Clipboard Not Working On Windows 10 2

Step 3: Now, navigate your way to Administrative Templates > System > OS Policies. Under OS Policies, you’ll see the options for Clipboard History and Synchronization. And the chances are that the state will be set as Not configured for both.

Step 4: All you have to do is double-click on Allow Clipboard History. That will open a secondary window. Select Enabled and hit the Apply button.

How To Fix Windows Clipboard Not Working On Windows 10 14

Step 5: Next, click on the Next Setting button and click on the Enabled button again. Once done, hit OK.

Fix 5: Check Windows Registry

Doing the above should also reflect the same on your Registry. But if that’s not the case, you may want to edit the Registry values.

Note: We strongly recommend taking a backup of the registry before making any changes.

Step 1: Once you’ve taken a backup, open the Start menu, search for regedit.exe, and hit Enter.

2 How To Fix Windows Clipboard Not Working On Windows 10 4

Step 2: Next, navigate to the path below,

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\
How To Fix Windows Clipboard Not Working On Windows 10 12

Step 3: Double-click on System from the left menu. You should see the following values, set to 1, here.

  • AllowClipboardHistory
  • AllowCrossDeviceClipboard
How To Fix Windows Clipboard Not Working On Windows 10 1

Step 4: But on the off-chance that the System doesn’t contain any key other than the default key, you’d have to add the values yourself. To add them, click on the space in the Registry window and select New. Next, select the DWORD (32-bit) value.

How To Fix Windows Clipboard Not Working On Windows 10 4

Once done, double-click on the key and set the value of each key to 1.

Having done that, restart your system, and the problem should be solved by itself.

Ошибка при копировании

Добрый вечер! Ув. Саппорт, возникает ошибка при попытки скопировать выделенный текст (Ctrl+C) в виде окошка с надписью » Cannot open clipboard!» Текст не копируется и соответственно не вставляется. Проблема только при работе в QDPro, в других програмах все ОК! Можно что-то сделать? Спасибо!

support: Пнд, Июль 07, 2014 09:11

Возможно причина в том, что Вы запускате программу под ОС Windows 8 в режиме эмуляции Windows XP. Программа учитывает особенности работы под 8, и в режиме эмуляции XP эти «особенности» не обрабатываются.

customs08@rambler.ru: Чт, Июль 28, 2016 17:07

Подскажите как решить проблему?

support: Чт, Июль 28, 2016 18:25

Это не ошибка в программе. Каким-либо другим приложением заблокирован буфер обмена (либо им «улучшена» цепочка сообщений) и программа просто не может получить доступ к буферу обмена. Я не буду пространно пояснять почему и как это может происходить (описание обработки цепочки буфера обмена займет не мало времени и вряд ли будет интересно для многих). Хочу лишь заметить, что есть ряд приложений требующих немедленной обработки сообщения и это может приводить к блокированию буфера обмена для других приложений.

How to fix Windows 10 Clipboard issues for good

Download the best tool to manage
your copy/cut/paste actions

Copying a text file to clipboard either from a Word document or a Notepad document in Windows 10, Windows 8 usually can be done very easily. For those of us who don’t exactly know the principle, we will explain it in a few words. When you use the “Ctrl” and “C” key combination to copy a text and “Ctrl” and “V” to paste the text in another document, the copied text is stored in the Clipboard feature.

Basically, if you copy a text to clipboard in Windows 10, Windows 8 and you don’t paste it somewhere else it will remain there as long as you do not restart the PC or copy another text to the clipboard.

Nevertheless there are some applications in Windows 10,Windows 8 where you might have trouble with the system clipboard and for this reason, I will explain a few methods below how you can solve your clipboard issue either for the whole system or for a specific app you installed.

Comfort Clipboard Pro is a great clipboard manager that will help you get rid of these problems. By using it you will be able to classify your clipped content in order to access it in a systemized way whithout any problems. We recommend you to use it until you do not fix Windows native clipboard issues.

3. Fix Clipboard issues in Windows Remote Desktop:

4. Fix Clipboard issues on Adobe Acrobat in Windows 10, 8:

The only way to fix your clipboard issue with Adobe Acrobat is to uninstall the application by going to “Control Panel” and then reinstall the newest version of the app for Windows 10, 8.

How to Fix Win­dows Clip­board Not Work­ing on Win­dows 10

Namrata Gogoi

07 Jun 2019

The clipboard is a central part of any ecosystem, be it a phone or a PC. It works quietly in the background and makes sure that all your Ctrl+X and Ctrl+V works as expected. And with the introduction of Windows 10’s Cloud Clipboard, this native feature has a much-needed boost.

Now, not only can you sync your copied text across your connected devices but it also doubles as a nifty clipboard manager.

That means the clipboard can now store a bunch of your copied text. And needless to say, this alleviates the problems associated with normal copy-paste jobs where you can easily lose a copied text snippet if your system goes for a sudden restart. Or worse, if you copy another snippet of text (or image) by mistake.

But on some occasions, as I have recently discovered, the Cloud Clipboard feature of Windows 10 doesn’t work as expected. Sometimes the clipboard just refuses to show up when needed. Or worse, the clipboard refuses to sync with your connected devices.

Thankfully, these are nothing that you can’t fix.

So, just in the case that your Windows 10 Clipboard manager isn’t working as expected, here are some tips that you can follow.

I know, you might have already checked this. But then again, it doesn’t hurt to run a second check. To check if the clipboard history is enabled, go to Settings > System and click on the Clipboard option on the left menu.

If the Clipboard history button is disabled, toggle it on. Do note that when this option is disabled, your system will be able to paste only the most recent item on your clipboard, and you won’t be able to access your clipboard history.

Once it is enabled, run a test by pressing Windows key + V shortcut. If it was a simple issue of the clipboard history not working, this simple tweak should solve it.

At the same time, check the syncing feature for it is not enabled by default. You have to toggle it manually. For that, you need to be signed in to the system with your Microsoft Account. If you have not done that, click on the Sign-in option and add your account.

2. Take a Look at the Group Policy

Another common issue with the Cloud Clipboard is the Sync feature. Ideally, if you use the same account on two devices (say a tablet or a PC), the clipboard items should sync between both the devices. But as expected, it is seldom the scenario.

So, if the above trick does not solve your issue, it’s time to delve a little deeper into the advanced settings aka Group Policy.

If you must know, Windows Group Policy has a variety of advanced settings that can be tweaked to adjust settings on a local computer, provided you know your way around them.

Step 1: To summon the Group Policy window, search for Gpedit.msc in the Start Menu.

Step 2: Launch it and click on Computer Configuration.

Step 3: Now, navigate your way to Administrative Templates > System > OS Policies. Under OS Policies, you’ll see the options for Clipboard History and Synchronization. And the chances are that the state will be set as Not configured for both.

Step 4: All you have to do is double click on Allow Clipboard History. That will open a secondary window. Select Enabled and hit the Apply button.

Step 5: Next, click on the Next Setting button and click on the Enabled button again. Once done, hit OK. After that, you should be able to see the Clipboard contents syncing across devices that use the same Microsoft account.

3. Check the Registry Values

Doing the above should also reflect the same on your Registry. But if that’s the case, you may want to edit the Registry values. As you may already know, the Windows Registry contains all the settings and configurations used by your Windows system.

Hence, any change made in it must be undertaken with the utmost care. And if possible, a backup of the default values should be taken before making any changes.

Step 1: Once you take a backup, open the Start menu and search for regedit.exe, and hit the Enter button when you locate it.

Step 2: Next, navigate to the path below.

Step 3: Double click on System from the left menu. Here, you should be able to see the following values, with their values set to 1.

Step 4: But in the off-chance that System doesn’t contain any key other than the default key, as was the case with me, you’d have to add the values yourself.

To add them, click on the empty space in the Registry window and select New.

Next, select DWORD (32-bit) value and add the following keys one by one. Once done, double-click on the key and set the value of each key to 1.

Having done that, restart your machine, and the problem should solve by itself.

Cannot open clipboard windows 10

Hi All! Subj. На последней строчке в этом куске:

windows.BringWindowToTop(h_pars);
PressKeys(«Ctrl+C»,10); // эмуляция нажатия на клавиши
line := Clipboard.AsText;

в стандартном модуле Clipbrd в этои вот месте:

if not OpenClipboard(FClipboardWindow) then
raise Exception.CreateRes(@SCannotOpenClipboard);

прога орет, что не может прочесть буфер. В чем может быть дело?


Jeer © ( 2004-11-17 17:44 ) [1]

Значит там не текст:(


cvg ( 2004-11-17 17:49 ) [2]

Ctrl-C грабит экран в окне, которое стало делается активным в первой приведенной строчке, правильно? Там таблица с меняющимися данными. Последняя строчка преобразует все, что можно, в текст. Так ведь, вроде?


cvg ( 2004-11-17 18:22 ) [3]

Ну что, больше ни у кого никаких мыслей нет?


Jeer © ( 2004-11-17 18:51 ) [4]

Не, все-таки она на второй из нижеприведенных строчек она все равно орет «Cannot open Clipboard» :((

if not Clipboard.HasFormat(CF_TEXT):boolean
if not OpenClipboard(FClipboardWindow) then
raise Exception.CreateRes(@SCannotOpenClipboard);


VMcL © ( 2004-11-18 15:07 ) [6]

Что говорит GetLastError или SysErrorMessage?


cvg ( 2004-11-18 15:36 ) [7]

Думешь, это что-нить даст? Самое-то тут противное то, что ана все ети дела грабит с экрана (хотя есть и режим работы с данными из файла), а значит я не могу подлезть с отладчиком.


> ана все ети дела грабит с экрана

В таком случае в Clipboard нет никакого текста и
line := Clipboard.AsText;
не лезет ни в какие ворота.


cvg ( 2004-11-18 16:23 ) [9]

Хм, а почему ж тогда рекомендованный Clipboard.HasFormat(CF_TEXT):boolean пропустил все это?

выполни после «грабления» экрана вот этот код:

if Clipboard.HasFormat(CF_TEXT) then
line := Clipboard.AsText
else
ShowMessage(«Bla-bla-bla!»);


cvg ( 2004-11-18 17:14 ) [11]


cvg ( 2004-11-18 17:15 ) [12]


VMcL © ( 2004-11-18 17:21 ) [13]

>Думешь, это что-нить даст?

Если у тебя в буфере изображение захваченное с экрана, то после
if Clipboard.HasFormat(CF_TEXT) then
строка
line := Clipboard.AsText;
выполняться не будет

и не надо никаких
try
.
except
.
end

Просто нужно проверить формат содержимого Clipboard.

И еще. Так и не последовало никакой реакции на Amoeba © (18.11.04 15:55) [8]
