I can't copy with the clipboard

Post by docfxit »

I just installed UltraVNC 1.4.3.6. on multiple PC's
Now I can't copy the clipboard from or to any of them.
They are all running Windows 10.
I had an earlier version of UltraVNC on all of them and the clipboard worked fine.
I do have Clipboard, Enable Automatic Synchronization checked on all of them.

Does anyone know why "Automatic Synchronization" for the clipboard isn't working in ver. 1.4.3.6?

Do you have the file transfer window open (or minimized)? In this case the clipboard transfer will not work. This had never worked (for me). I tried it with this version of uvnc and after closing the transfer window the synchronization worked again.

I don't have the file transfer window open.
I can transfer automatically from the host to the client.
It won't transfer from the client to the host unless I select the UVNC icon in the top left, Clipboard, Request all formats now.

Thank you,

And what format are you trying to transfer? Just text, html or rtf. Or images?
(for images you need to "request all formats now") looking at those options.)

I would like to copy mostly text. But it could be anything.
