Killing the Too-Clever Clipboard If

Killing the Too-Clever Clipboard


If you want to get rid of the annoying clipboard in MS Office that pops up when you all you want to do is a two-finger copy and paste, you “just” need to edit a line in your registry. Microsoft has directions here. (If you’re using Office XP, it seems likely that you can replace the 9 with a 10 when you’re browsing the registry.) Obviously, editing your registry is a dangerous undertaking, you should make a backup, don’t come whining to me, etc. etc. etc. [I found this tip in the Lockergnome discussion forum. Thanks!]
You may also be able to set this using the excellent x-setup tweaker from Xteq.
