Clipboard copying issue

[LBazz]

I recently reset my high-end gaming laptop running Windows 10 Home. Every time I want to copy-paste something, I have to try multiple times since it looks like it has a pre-copied text, which is a path to a directory in the file system, that gets pasted 70% of the times I try to paste the text I copied. Tried using both ctrl-c/right clicking --> copy and ctrl-v/right clicking --> paste but nothing changes. Also it looks like there is no specific way to tell if it's going to paste my text or the pre-copied path. Any help?

Hi,

open Settings > System > Clipboard and check your settings there, clear if necessary!.

This is a small .bat file I use to clear the clipboard without restarting Windows:

%windir%\System32\cmd.exe /c "echo off | clip"
wmic service where "name like '%%cbdhsvc_%%'" call stopservice
wmic service where "name like '%%cbdhsvc_%%'" call startservice
pause

I put it in Notepad and saved as ClipClean.bat.

Tried both @Bighorn and @Wolfie solutions but the precopied thing is still there. I can provide a gif if needed

Please provide a screenshot of your clipboard settings in Settings.
