Hi,

This error arises when there is too much temporary files or data on your Excel's clipboard. We suggest that you clear all of the temporary files on your computer. Kindly follow the steps provided below:

Step 1: Clear the temp folder.

1. Press   + R on your keyboard.
2. Type %Temp% and click OK.
3. Delete all files from temporary folder.

Note: You can back up all of the temporary folders in case that you are in need of a copy of the soon to be deleted folders.

Step 2: Delete all the clipboard items:

1. On the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click the Clipboard dialog box launcher.

2. The Clipboard task pane appears on the left side of your spreadsheet and shows all clips in the clipboard.

3. To clear the entire clipboard, click the Clear All button.

4. To delete an individual clip, hover next to the clip, click the arrow to the right of the clip, and click Delete.
