That's correct. When I skimmed the article, I thought it mentioned some things that couldn't *read* the clipboard, but perhaps I was mistaken. (if so, sorry!
)

Sounds like something even as simple as these might help;

Something just to monitor the clipboard if it's been emptied or what not.

I attempted to fix this in v13.20.0001 - 2013-11-05 16:59, but got no feedback yet. Is it fixed now?

Sorry, Don -- I thought I had replied but I apparently didn't. Nope, nothing changed, unfortunately. Still trying to figure out what's different here...

Hi Andy,
As mentioned via PM, I was experiencing the same issue and it seems the problem lies with the Webroot SecureAnywhere security application. One of the features is what is called 'Application Protection' and what it does is, it 'protects' applications from extracting personal data, whatever that means. I did some digging around and found this thread:
https://community.webroot.com/t5/Webroo ... td-p/21588, and set xyplorer.exe to 'Allow' under 'Application Protection' tab in the advanced settings ('Identity Protection') in the list of protected applications. Once done, copy/paste functionality is back to normal and I can use it in XYplorer even when Chrome and Firefox are running.
It seems that WSA automatically added XYplorer on this list when I reinstalled it.
Hope this helps,
Zoran

Thanks Zoran, making the change in Webroot fixed text pasting in XY for me, it's been irritating not having that working for a while now.
