I have a user who wants to permanently diable/hide the Excel clipboard from
appearing. I have found that changing the value of the registry key
AcbControl from 0 to 1 is supposed to diable it. I have done that but later
in the day, an Excel file is being worked on and the clipboard comes back. I
checked the registry key and it has changed itself back to 0(turned on). Is
there something in the properties of indivual spreadsheets that is turning
the clipboard back on? I am sure i am missing some obscure setting but
cannot seem to find it.
 
To stop Clipboard from popping up set its Options to "Collect without
showing clipboard"

OR set to "show clipboard when ctrl + c is pressed twice:
