    Hello, friends.
    I am looking for info about this theme is this forum, but I do not found response about what are the causes for what clipboard (Win7 Ult, AMD triple) is deactivated.
    I use NotePad++ as my NotePad editor for my programming languages, but I am not sure NotePad++ can be the causant… but I am not fully sure… I only discover that clipboard is deactivated when using NotePad++.
    I do not have a lot of programs in memory when this happens.
    If some one can gets me some approach to the understand why this heppens, I’ll be very appreciated.
    Thanks.

      For me, the cause was Xming x-server running in the background with clipboard sharing enabled. When I turned off clipboard sharing in X-ming I never had the issue again. Note that it wasn’t only notepad++ that was affected, cut and paste didn’t work anywhere. But it seemed the clipboard stopped working only when both N++ and X-ming were running together.

      Cheers.

        N++ does have a clipboard history feature built in and I wonder if that was conflicting with X-ming hook into the clipboard which enabled clipboard sharing between regular windows and x-sever applications.

        I’m using Ditto now on recommendation from @dinkumoil with no I’ll affects.

        Cheers.
