Usually I use the keyboard shortcuts to copy and paste files/text between the remote session and my local machine. When the clipboard doesn't seem to work anymore I always try to use the context menu in the remote session to copy/paste something instead of the keyboard shortcuts and sometimes it's working again. Unfortunately not always.

Another thing, it seems to me that the clipboard stability improved over the last weeks. I am wondering if other applications are interfering...

Do you use Office, Visual Studio or other clipboard management tools? In my experience it happens a lot while using Office. Office has it's own clipboard management implemented which seems to sometimes breaks the terminal services clipboard functionality.

Hi Oliver,

as I've replied already on the other thread: http://www.code4ward.net/main/Forums/...

I'm pretty sure that the issue you are experiencing is caused by RDP itself, so your options are limited. Since you are connecting to XP, I guess the behavior will be the same, regardless if you use Royal TS, mstsc.exe or any other product. Royal TS provides the feature to "type" the clipboard text, which is pretty unique and was originally implemented for Hyper-V sessions. Maybe this is sufficient, at least you get at least text from your local machine to the remote machine.

cheers
