I've noticed, only in the past few days, when I copy and paste something via the web into a document, I get duplicates. I've also noticed that when closing a document, I get an empty window + a small window, in pale blue which hangs for a few seconds, then disappears. Could it be a recent update? I've already shut pc down and then on again. Thanks.

I says Windows 10 Home Edition - version 1703
It may have just been the site I was on. However, I think it happened on 2 sites. I was actually trying to understand about this latest KRACK hack. I was copying and pasting a paragraph, which mentioned 2 suppliers of routers affected. I have a D-Link, so wanted to follow it up. Then, the paragraph changed when I got it pasted into my document, and instead of showing the 4, blue links for the providers, the ones that appeared in my document, were 4 different providers! I thought I'd imagined it. Then I noticed I have repeat paragraphs.

Upgrade to 1709 per my suggestion earlier!. :)
When I checked again the following day or two, I had 1709. It's a bit odd, because my updates come in automatically. I've since been on a few sites and successfully copied and pasted OK. I keep notes, and discovered that a similar thing happened about a month ago. Hopefully just a few little glitches. I've really only had minor things happen in the year I've had Windows 10, updated like thousands of others from 7. Talk to you again.
