2 Windows 11 PCs, the message says: unable to retrieve clipboard data from remote system. Any ideas?

Hi,

Is this consistent across all types of clipboard data? (e.g. do you see the message if you copy/paste text from notepad on one computer to the other?). Does it work in one direction but not the other?

Regs,

Shane.

I did some tests. I will use A(main) and B(client) to refer these two PCs.

1.For text, A->B shows unable, B->A works fine.

2.For files, A->B shows unable, B->A works with a popup window BUT nothing actually transfer, it just looks like it's working.

OK it seems the popup windows thing is because I use the directory that cannot be share (desktop). I tried some normal folders and now B->A file transfer is working. But I'm not using the File copy uses network share option, is this normal?
