Description

When trying to copy a screenshot by sketching a screen fragment (ctrl+shift+s), copying does not happen automatically, an error occurs when trying to manually copy. -->

OS

Windows 10 Pro Release Version 22H2 Installation date 10/23/2023 OS Assembly 19045.4291 Interaction Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19056.1000.0 -->

Reproduction steps

How can the bug be recreated? It's the most important information in the bug report. Bugs that cannot be reproduced cannot be fixed and verified.

open the program, select the strict package, apply, restart the computer and try to copy the screenshot to the clipboard using (ctrl+shift+s).

Scripts

If applicable, please attach the generated privacy.sexy file instead of copy pasting which becomes too long. privacy-script.zip -->

Screenshots

If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem. -->

Enabling and disabling copying to clipboard in the settings also does not lead to any result (this is my first post and my first introduction to github, so there may be mistakes, also I use a translator.)

Hi @Roveind, thank you for the issue and providing all the necessay information

Let's keep it in English. Translation is good idea. I cannot assist you in Russian and you can reach more people in the community this way.

The tool shown in the screenshot appears to be the Windows Snipping Tool or Snip & Sketch. The error message (translated using ChatGPT) is: "Failed to copy this image".

Revert clipboard history:

@echo off

:: Ensure admin privileges
fltmc >nul 2>&1 || (
    echo Administrator privileges are required.
    PowerShell Start -Verb RunAs '%0' 2> nul || (
        echo Right-click on the script and select "Run as administrator".
        pause & exit 1
    )
    exit 0
)
:: Initialize environment
setlocal EnableExtensions DisableDelayedExpansion

reg delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Clipboard" /v "EnableClipboardHistory" /f 2>nul
reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System" /v "AllowClipboardHistory" /f 2>nul
:: ----------------------------------------------------------


:: Pause the script to view the final state
pause

endlocal
:: Exit the script successfully
exit /b 0

Let me know if this resolve the issue so we can update privacy.sexy. You may need to restart your computer afterwards, please also inform if a restart was needed or not.

Hello @undergroundwires, unfortunately your script did not help, the images are also not copied to the clipboard, in the process I noticed that the standard Calculator application also stopped working with the clipboard, when trying to copy the Calculator it just crashes. I have provided a video where everything is clearly shown. ((the text was written with the help of a translator, the translation may be inaccurate.))

Hi @Roveind , can you try reverting cbdhsvc and see if it resolves both issues:
