So I just downloaded Macro Scheduler and wrote my first script (very simple). It works well but I noticed that whenever it is running I can not use copy/paste/cut in any other application.
So, for example, the script waits for an image to appear and meanwhile I'm typing something in Notepad. As long as the script runs I can't copy/paste in my notebook. Even using the right mouse -> Copy Menu does not work. My script does not use the clipboard at any point. It only waits for an image and clicks on it.
This seems like a big limitations. I'm using Windows 7 and Macro Scheduler 14.2.07e
Thank you very much!
Clipboard gets disabled when running script.

Re: Clipboard gets disabled when running script.
Hi,
The clipboard is not disabled by Macro Scheduler. Are you sure your macro is not using the clipboard somehow?

Re: Clipboard gets disabled when running script.
It happens to me too when scanning a specific image without using any clipboard commands
Re: Clipboard gets disabled when running script.
Is it possible that a web page Java script can lock or disable the Clipboard?
When I set a MS breakpoint while on a particular page, my Clipboard remains completely disabled, but is enabled only after the macro is halted. As Marcus said, I feel certain it isn’t MS that has locked the Clipboard. But it seems as though a script on the webpage detects a Macro and disables the Clipboard.
They have successfully disabled nearly every other text or tag reading tool. I would love some advice. I'm using MS version 14.3.11
