For me, it is Word. I will use FS clipboard to select, copy, and append the text I want to put in, then control-V. All works fine. then, sometimes, I will select another area, press controlC, word will pause, and then just say "print" and go back to the document without saying "copied." Yesterday I had to select again and press control C multiple times (with answering yes each time) for it to copy the new text. Now usually, it works just great, but sometimes, it gets a bit sluggish and flaky when I've had Word up for a while, something I have to do with my job. i just think it would be a nice thing to have a way of just clearing the clipboard without having to try to copy something else and answer yes.

Sorry, but I don't think it's the FS clipboard that's messed up.

One thing you might want to check is how your system is displaying highlighted text. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but it might. Of course, you know how to select individual words, sentences, etc., right?

And depending where you are trying to use the clipboard, there are clipboard settings in Word you might want to turn off. I can't remember what they are right now, but the MS clipboard might be set up differently on your computer. And I have no idea if it's Word you're working in or not.

But again, I really don't think the FS clipboard is the problem here.

you know folks this is getting more and more anoying.
the only way to even get the clipboard contents to do what i would wantis to do a select all before doing a control c lets just say that is screwed up in the sense cause what if you wanted to just select part of what you are selecting and the regular clipboard and the fs clipboard dont allow you to copy the text like that then what?
just a question

Sometimes, it doesn't copy when I do this. sometimes, it needs to be done multiple times.

Why would you need to clear it? Just do a normal cut or copy to the clipboard and a dialog pops up warning you that this will erase what's already there, if you've used windows+C. Answer yes to this and you're good to go.
