I have never had this happen to me and I am on at least 3 Macs at a time all day. That said, I did not know these tricks to kill and restart pboard or Windows Server as a potential solution. Good to know. Thanks for the post.

The only time this fails for me is when I’m using TeamViewer. Not sure if it’ll fix it for a remote session but I’ll give this a try so thanks for sharing
