Enable 'Allow programaticclipboard access" for IE.

1. for current user. They can simply modify belowregistry.   0=Enable, 1=Prompt

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

 

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings\Zones\2]

"1407"=dword:00000000

 

2.Use Group Policy API for all users. Maybe the app need haveAdministrator right.

Policy settings are specified by an administrator. This is incontrast to profile settings, that are specified by a user.

Below is C++ example to enable “'Allow programaticclipboard access”

 

#define   INITGUID
