1.) Bypass prompting for Clipboard access for scripts running in any process


This policy setting allows you to bypass prompting when a script that is running in any process on the computer attempts to perform a Clipboard operation (delete, copy, or paste).

If you turn-on this rule setting, the user is not prompted when a script that is running in any process on the computer performs a Clipboard operation. This means that if the zone behavior is currently set to prompt, it will be bypassed and enabled.

If you disable this policy setting, the user is prompted when a script that is running in any process on the computer attempts to perform a Clipboard operation.

If you do not configure this rule setting, current values of the URL action for the application or process on the computer prevail.

2.) Bypass prompting for Clipboard access for scripts running in the Internet Explorer process


This policy setting allows you to bypass prompting when a script that is running in the Internet Explorer process attempts to perform a Clipboard operation (delete, copy, or paste) and the URL action for the zone is set to prompt.

If you turn-on this rule setting, the user is not prompted when a script that is running in the Internet Explorer process performs a Clipboard operation. In the Internet Explorer process, if the zone behavior is currently set to prompt, it will be bypassed and enabled.

If you turn-off this policy setting, the user is prompted when a script that is running in the Internet Explorer process attempts to perform a Clipboard operation.

If you do not configure this rule setting, current values of the URL action for the Internet Explorer process prevail.

3.) Define applications and processes that can access the Clipboard without prompting


This rule setting allows you to define applications and processes that can access the Clipboard without prompting the user.

Note: Do not enter the Internet Explorer processes in this list. To turn-on or disable Internet Explorer processes, use the "Bypass prompting for Clipboard access for scripts running in the Internet Explorer process" policy. If the "Bypass prompting for Clipboard access for scripts running in any process" policy setting is enabled, the processes configured in this rule setting take precedence over that policy setting.

If you turn-on this rule setting and enter a value of 1, prompts are bypassed. If you enter a value of 0, prompts are not bypassed. Value Name is the name of the executable file. If Value Name is empty or the value is not 0 or 1, the policy setting is ignored.

If you enable this rule setting for an application or process in the list, a script can perform a Clipboard operation without prompting the user. This means that if the zone behavior is currently set to prompt, it will be bypassed and enabled.

If you turn-off this policy setting for an application or process in the list, a script that is running in the application or process cannot bypass the prompt for delete, copy, or paste operations from the Clipboard.

If you do not configure this rule setting, current values of the URL action for an application or process in the list prevail.


3.) What should I note in the clipboard access?

It should be noted that possibly Web pages on the clipboard access without you notice it, there is also a small possibility of unauthorized access to their private clipboard data.
