Title: Clipboard Pollution
Post by: hodell on October 14, 2015, 09:22:15 PM

I've had the following sequence happen to me on occasion:

1. I'm teamviewed into a remote computer

2. I copy some text to my clipboard on my local computer

3. I try to paste the contents of my clipboard locally

4. My local clipboard has somehow been "polluted" with the clipboard contents of the remote computer

I wonder if anyone else has run into this issue and/or has any suggestions on how to fix.  Thanks.

On your computer

Extras >> Options>> Advanced >> Show Advanced options

In section
Advanced settings for connections to other computers is a 'clipboard sychronisation' checkbox

Uncheck that (checked by default)
