I encountered strange clipboard problems as a result of fiddling with the Clipboard Settings in Win10. When I turned on "Sync across devices", after a "Copy to clipboard" operation, sometimes the "Paste from clipboard" operation pasted nothing or the previous clipboard content. A few moments later, another "Paste" would paste the content of the most recent "Copy". It seems as though the content of the clipboard was not updated after a Copy operation until a Sync to cloud was performed, with the timing being dependant on WiFi, internet and cloud speeds and latency. I did not observe any difference in "Drag and Drop" behaviour with this setting, but I almost exclusively use keyboard Copy and Paste instead of mouse Drop and Drag.
