error in Microsoft Excel and Word, especially when you are trying to copy any kind of data. Here are all the possible solutions I could find.

You can also go to Windows\System32 directory and double-click on clipbrd.exe. Method 3: If you've been using Remote Desktop, you may get the Cannot Copy to Clipboard error because Remote Desktop uses the clipboard and it can cause weird issues with Excel.

Any kind of remote desktop software could be causing the issue, so make sure to check to see if you have the problem when one of those programs are running. Method 4: Go to Excel, click on Tools, then Options, and go to the Calculation tab. Make sure that Automatic is selected from the three options. In newer versions of Excel, you have to click on File, Options and then click on General. Method 5: If you have a program like GetRigh

Jerry is trying to cut information from one cell and paste it into another cell. He can cut it just fine, but when he tries to paste it he gets an error message, "Cannot Empty the Clipboard." Jerry wonders what causes this error. This has been a problem in Excel for some time. (Actually, the problem seems to crop up in several different Office applications, not just Excel.) The solutions for the problem depend upon what is causing the problem and which version of Excel you are using. As an example, here are two different articles at the Microsoft Knowledge Base that address the issue: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/196620 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899266 Note that the articles are focused on entirely different versions of Excel and entirely different causes. Unfortunately, Microsoft hasn't seen fit to create a "here's how to fix it" article that addresses the wider range of potential causes. There are, however, resources available on the wider Internet that address the issue. Here's a good one: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/ms-office-tips/cannont-empty-clipboard/ You can find lots of other such resources by searching for the phrase "cannot empty the keyboard" (make sure you include the quote marks).

8, 2005. Bucky Guest If you use remote desktop/terminal services, you may have seen the "cannot empty the clipboard" error. Then you cannot do anymore cutting and pasting. There have been many posts about this in the past, and I've seen suggestions about MS hotfixes, uninstalling Office, etc., but I haven't seen this solution, which worked for me: Go to Task Manager > Processes Look for "rdpclip.exe" End that process This is for the case where cutting and pasting works fine at first, but after a lot of cutting and pasting, you get the "cannot empty the clipboard" error. Bucky, Apr 8, 2005 #1 Advertisements Guest Guest I have exactly the same problem, and I use remote desktop, but the "rdpclip.exe" process was not running on my computer.

Re: Go to Task Manager => Processes Look for "rdpclip.exe" End that process JAPinso, Jan 17, 2008 #3 Abter Joined: Sep 3, 2008 Likes Received: 0 THANKS. This fixed my problem, which has plagued me for over a year. NOTE: I found rdpclip.exe running on my remote computer, not my "main", or host, computer. To get to Task Manager on the remote computer, switch to that computer, and then hit CTRL-ALT-END (instead of CTRL-ALT-DEL). That will let you control the processes on the remote computer, instead of the host computer.
