Unfortunately I don't control how it is set up. How *is* it set up? Is there anything installed/running that might be doing unusual things with the clipboard (clipboard managers, monitoring programs, remote desktop access [whether outgoing or incoming])? It seems unusual though that pasting into other apps works if this is the case. You can't copy *or* paste in Emacs? Are you able to build a test C program to exercise OpenClipboard, GetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT), CloseClipboard and see if they all function as expected independent of Emacs?
