Disable the copy or cut and paste completely

From: kend_beledm

Is it possible on a windows-based systems to disable or completely disable the copy and paste function, any type of program is displayed on the screen.

De : Andrew McLaren

You can do this for Windows as a whole (and even if you did, users could simply use a print-screen instead, limited data). But you can do it for specific applications: essential technology is Windows Rights Management Services ("RMS"). See http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/technologies/rightsmgmt/default.mspx

If you have an application that can participate in a RMS infrastructure, you can indeed set up policies to selectively allow or prevent the n-cut-paste, etc., to users and groups. or refuse to cut-and - paste altogether in this application.

Microsoft Office is the application most common which can be plugged into RMS. Once it is all together, it is extremely effective... you really want to cut-and - paste privileged information from this juicy email or a Word document. but hell, you just can not! You also cannot transfer protected emails, etc..

There is a public SDK, so anyone can write an application that subscribes to RMS and restrict access to the application data. However if you have a legacy application (IE, an already existing application) which you can not re-engineer, so I think you're a bit stuck. You may need to address the issue of security in a non computer perspective, such as human resources policies, etc.

You can also take a look at the Software Restriction policies ("PRS"), a similar security Windows feature. SRP will not stop users to cut and paste, as such; but it lets you create a very controlled environment. You can stop the users do a lot of things you don't want to do. See:

  • keep the formula when cut and paste cells

    I have a workbook for card games where we're going to turn seats/tables throughout the day (6 moves in total).  I have reproduced the a sheet that has cells with formulas to pick up names among the other sheets in the workbook.  When I cut and paste them, for my seat of update, the formula of data changes.  IE:, journal name game 1, cell #A1 said = name cell A2 of sheet summary and so on.  When I cut and paste, it will change this formula in the correct sheet but bad cell.  Why is she even change any link to the other sheet?

    Thank you.

    It is difficult to follow what you describe here.  By workbook (not a term of numbers), it seems you're saying that worksheet. But in numbers, you can't have a sheet that contains cells. The cells are take-away in an array of numbers that is located on a sheet.  You can duplicate a table of numbers and you can also duplicate a sheet of numbers, but it is not too clear what you're doing.  How about providing a screenshot of what happens?

  • Problem with the numbers in the rows of cut and paste

    Hey,.

    I'm new to MAC and now have problems with the help of figures, I brought my windows Excel worksheets. On windows, I could cut a line and paste anywhere on this page and by practice that Excel would fill the void rank where I cut the content. but here on MAC it does not work, why?

    anyway I tried to live with it by cutting a line and for the collage, I used Insert > copied lines for paste swath and add a line for her. but last night I updated the numbers and now by the practice precedes the Windrow is stuck this time with a resized form, the line is resized to a big line.

    Why is this happening? If it can't be fixed, I can go back to a previous version of a number? This update of hate.

    Numbers is excellent NO then you should consider to guide your expectations.

    Cut number refers only to the content NOT the line, or cells.  Select when a row, and then use the cut command that you cut the contents of the cells.

    If you try to move a line from one place to another, you should try this method (which can work for you)...

    Select the line, then click and hold on the header line (up to the line "lift" on the table), the operation slide the line to the destination.

    Now drag the line:

    Now drop the line where you want to:

  • I did according to the instructions RE: cut and paste, still does not work.

    This is what is shown as my profile directory
    /Home/davidlisle/.Mozilla/firefoxsa4u14wa.default-1390261301661

    It's the user.js, I created in accordance with the online instructions page:

    // This file can be used to configure global preferences for Firefox
// Example: Homepage
pref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://www.linkedin.com/");
user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");

    However, the data but followed instructions do not produce the expected results.
    Right now I see myself forced to use another browser as I work a lot on the line and I 'should' be able to copy / paste. If you can respond in a timely and a solution, I'll continue with firefox, I like. Otherwise, my frustration level has peaked and interest in firefox is rapidly declining.

    I should be able to accomplish this task with simple steps, not an eternity of troubleshooting your installation bad 'protection '. I am equally sure that many others have no problem, I do however.

    I have provided some basic information about this machine, if you need something specific, I'm sure I'll be happy to hand it to you.

    Hello Young Ceaser,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    Have you always had this problem with the creation of a new folder?  When you try to create that file to?  Please let us know status.  Thank you!

    I'd like to experience for me to better understand the potential cause for what you are experiencing.

    What we will do is create a new folder in your user profile directory and test the availability of renaming.

    We also create a folder on your desktop and attempt to appropriate to see if we can then rename it.

    Here are the steps to do this:

    Click Start-> click on your username at the top right of the menu.

    In the new window, click on organize-> then new folder

    Check your ability to rename.

    From there, double-click the desktop folder.

    Take the same steps to create a new folder, test the name change.

    Then, on an issue that you cannot rename, test this procedure:

    To take ownership of a folder:

    Right-click the folder for which you want to set permissions, click Properties and then click the Security tab.

    Click Advanced to open the security settings advanced for the dialog box .

    Click on the owner tab, click on change. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    In the new security settings advanced to box, the change in ownership to: field, select your username and check Replace owner of subcontainers and objects. Click OK, repeat for the other boxes. (If your username does not appear click on the button other users or groups to add your account).

    Try to rename the folder.

    Once you are complete with tests, you can delete the folder created by right-clicking on them and selecting Remove.

    New to Applescript/Automator-

    I want to be able to have a simple shot that will allow me to paste a particular image in a conversation in Messages... It is the same image that I want every time. But I want to avoid having to go to Messages, search for image copy and then turn over Messages to paste.  I didn't need the script to automatically display the message, simply cut and paste of the pictures folder so that I am in Messages in a new message to the existing message thread (it makes no sense to me).

  • Select, copy/cut and paste (Windows Desktop Client)

    A television series, I'm hoping to write for use Adobe Story, and having spent some time using the free browser version, I just went for a monthly subscription - partly to have a client of separate office and partly because I hoped that this would bring the narrative copy and pasting of the conventions in line with other programs (for example the Final draft and the word Windows (, which I largely used for many years). I've never used Ctrl-x, Ctrl + c and Ctrl + v to paste, preferring select text with the mouse or the keyboard, do a right-click copy or cut and paste then with shift-Ins (0 on the numeric keypad).

    But even in history, there is no editing functions if you select the text and then right click, and no shift-Insert work. I have to use Ctrl-x, Ctrl + c and Ctrl-v, according to the Web version. Is there a way around this? Is that going to be enabled in a future release? For now, I must say, it is difficult to see the subscription which survive in a second month - it's great to have a desktop client, but it is not easier to use than the free version.

    Sorry, but we currently do not have these two features in the editor. i.e. cut, copy and paste options in the right click menu and paste using Shift-Insert.

    Found a solution for the "DVD RW cut and paste problem" in my Windows XP feedback system.

    Installed the package free writing Drag2Disc software for Windows Vista (32 bit, 64 bit), XP (32-bit, 64-bit) of IBM/Lenovo on system invited and formatted a DVD disc.  Everything seems to work fine on the DVD RW drive systems of the host and the guest.

    The available Drag-to-Disc packet writing software can be downloaded from the following site:

    you set up the writer as IDE

    in my experience, you must configure it as SCSI
    See http://sanbarrow.com/vmx/vmx-cd-settings.html

    even then, I'm not sure if the packet writing is supported - software for CD burning ordinary as Nero and others should work well

  • cut and paste does not work

    I have DirectorMX2004 10.1. I use a PPC Mac, the last line of the G5s. The characteristics of cut and paste do not work no matter how I apply, even on different files. Is this a bug that someone knows? Or are there settings that I could reset? I am at a loss here. Thanks in advance!

    I thought about it. I was not clicking on the channel where I wanted to stick. I moved a picture different without selecting the channel, so Director did not know where to paste.

  • In one of the inDesign tutorials instructor pulls up what looks like an application bar that contains among other things a text editor to cut and paste the copy into the inDesign project.  That is a feature of inDesign, and how is it accessible?

    In one of the inDesign tutorials instructor pulls up what looks like an application bar that contains among other things a text editor to cut and paste the copy into the inDesign project.  That is a feature of inDesign, and how is it accessible?

    The instructor used the App Switcher on Mac to switch to a text editor and copy this text editor text. InDesign is not the active application.

  • Layers: Copying, cutting and pasting

    Another feature I am used that I can't live without (coming from a background of Corel PHOTO-PAINT), is the ability to copy or cut a layer with CTRL + C or CTRL + X. In Photoshop, first of all, you have to CTRL + click on the layer to select its transparency and then CTRL + C to copy the layer, but I'll tell you why it isn't ideal. First of all, it's one more step that is totally useless. Second, sometimes I want to cut the layer completely, which means storing the entire layer to the Clipboard and delete in the same process. In this way, I can just paste right back into my document if I want or I can select a different document and just paste it. I realize, you can drag and drop, but add this feature would not ruin all the existing features, and it makes sense!

    To clarify, my request is that if no mask is selected and someone hits CTRL + C or CTRL + X he copies or reduce the entire layer, and layer attached to it masks.

    Thanks for listening

    I feel that, by allowing the copy/cut of the layers in the way you propose, it would create a paradox of the Photoshop interface.

    The paradox would be: If we allow this to happen, then should we also allow the copy/excision of channels, styles, presets, accurate history, swatches & etc.?

    Pretty weird (come to think of it), it works with the railways, if... Well, maybe it's preventing them to apply this feature to the layers. Try this: open the paths and layers palettes. Create an image with a layer and a path. Then, select the layer in the palette. And select a path in the palette. Copy (or cut). There he goes: the functionality you want, but in the wrong palette ;-) Easy don't paths... but then again, the railways are not as annoying as pixels...

    As I see it, essentially (PS and I, don't know ' end other applications), elements that appear inside the pallets are prohibited for common OS operations such as copy, cut, and paste. For these operations, you must use the corresponding palette menu.

    I guess it's something to do with the maintenance of the entire uniform user interface, without "pallets of rebels behave differently from others" (well, we already have a: paths!) "Maybe thay don't want another?) And also, it keeps things simple and intuitive. Think about it: If you have so many possible recipients for content in the Clipboard, Visual reference of where you want to put to get totally awkward (imagine someone with 3 monitors, 2 of them filled with open palletes PS):

    "Allright, I want to stick this thing that I got in the paper..."

    ...

    hummmm...

    (eyes desperately scanning the monitors and editing... neck pain)

    ... ah! Gotcha, here it goes

    Heck! Come to the wrong place! Argh!

    .... ..."

    It's a chore. I don't want that. It is not always that I know what is in the Clipboard (I remember HAVE contained one like it, Kind ' a 'show' content of the Clipboard-(Hey, it's another request for devs make'em!))

    --------------------

    On a different subject:

    Some while ago, I was struggling remove some 30 masks + I had in this doc PS of the mine. Man, HOW I WISH I could CMD-select all these channels and delete'em all in a scream. At that point, I was really upset and wrote a demand function (I guess it was for CS2) about the deletion of multiple channels in the palette layers. After a few ranting I've cooled down and started to think straight, so I thought: if they do not have the aux channels on a separate palette, or do not clearly separation between the layers of color and auxiliary channels, we would never have to be able to remove multiple channels, ' cos that just don't make sense (you can select several channels , but cannot delete them. Something to do with the color channels? Guess it would be weird, but don't know for sure why. A Photoshop guru could enlighten us?

    Carefully read your posts, I understand that you don't like Shuffle windows. So here's a tip, where the devs don't you listen to:

    Create a new Action and assign a function key (i.e. F2).

    In the Actions Palette, select it and on the Actions Palette Menu, assign a menu item to the action. Choose "layer > duplicate layer...» "You can then select a layer or a group (works with both), press F2, and then choose the destination of duplication among all open documents. You can even create a new doc that contains only the duplication.

    It's not like you want, but close enough.

  • How to cut and paste the image of the body of the received email

    I'm trying to cut and paste an image included in the bottom of an email and insert it into a Word document so that you can size and print. I can highlight, cut it with Ctrl C, paste it into the document Word with Ctrl V, but the image doesn't show, although the picture frame appears when I click on the place where the photo was pasted. Framework, but empty, no image. Any thoughts?

    Thanks to everyone for their help.

    The problem has been resolved - to try and finally understand everything.

    If you encounter this problem, it is perhaps because, unless you know the file format of the inserted picture, programs can not figure it out for you. Place your cursor on the image, right click and save the image under a .jpeg instead of simply copying. Then work with the file .jpeg in any photo management program you use normally - or even insert it in Word.

  • Cut and paste in Windows Explorer is * copy * instead of move.

    In Solution Explorer, if I try to move files and folders using cut and paste (or ctrl-x and then Ctrl + v, or 'cut' and then 'paste' from the Edit menu), they were copied instead of moved. It started just past recently after years of using this technique.

    If I right click, drag and select 'Go here', he moves correctly.

    Any ideas? Very much appreciated.

    See you soon,.

    Hello Michael,

    Your computer is connected to a domain?

    This can happen when there is rdpclip.exe service runs as part of a domain network. You can try to stop the rdpclip.exe service to see if that helps.

    Another thing that can help is to make sure that you have installed Windows XP Service Pack 3.

    Hope that helps, I look forward to hearing from you.
