How to reproduce: run Excel 2016 on the host, and start the guest VM. In Excel 2016 on the host, select a cell with some data, and repeatedly press CTRL+C - roughly 1 in 4 attempts will cause the above error - highly reproducible. With the VM shut down, CTRL+C on Excel on the host will never give this error. Note that Excel has long been affected by applications that access/lock the clipboard. It seems that MS have recently tried to mitigate, and changed the message in Excel. I suspect it is possible older Excel versions may also be affected, but if so, the error will be slightly different: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_excel-mso_win10/clipboard-problem-in-excel-2016/224b2a59-8a0c-4897-baba-a481dd06e085?page=5 ",defect,new,clipboard,VirtualBox 5.1.8,,clipboard excel problem windows host,,Linux,Windows
