Subject: Cygwin clipboard flaky on Windows 7

Further to below. I find that after a reboot I can cut and paste
bidirectionally between the MS 7 and X win worlds for MS word and
notepad but once I start IE 11 then cuting from MS 7 world and pasting
in the X world stops working. Sometimes quitting out of IE 11 allows the
cut and paste to start working again.
Thanks
Chris

After 4 years I've just upgrade to version :-
CYGWIN_NT-6.1 mars 1.7.32(0.274/5/3) 2014-08-13 23:03 i686 Cygwin
I use the following batch file :-
run XWin :1 -clipboard -nodecoration -notrayicon -dpi 100 -query
machine -from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -once
on my windows 7 machine.
When X is first started and with one "windows notepad" open I can
bi-directionally cut and paste between the MS and X windows world.
However, it seems that if I have multiple MS windows open then I can't
cut from MS windows and paste into the X world. It still works for X
world to MS World.
Sadly I wrote over my old version which did not have this issue. Is
there any fix for this?
Thanks
Chris
