Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD to close. However, some background programs may block the CONTENTSOFCLIPBOARD file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
