Clipboard error while using numpad

I have set my movement commands onto the numpad. While walking around i occasionally get the following eror message: "Cannot open the clipboard"

Any suggestions?

Open your "world" file (the one ending in .mcl) in a text editor, such as Notepad.

Scroll down until you get to the "keypad" section which looks like this:



<!-- keypad -->

<keypad
   muclient_version="5.06"
   world_file_version="15"
   date_saved="2020-03-14 09:52:01"
  >

  <key name="0" >
  <send>look</send>
  </key>

  <key name="1" >
  <send>sw</send>
  </key>

  <key name="2" >
  <send>south</send>
  </key>

  <key name="3" >
  <send>se</send>
  </key>

  <key name="4" >
  <send>west</send>
  </key>

  <key name="5" >
  <send>WHO</send>
  </key>

...

</keypad>


Copy that part and paste into a reply here, so I can see what your keypad commands are.

Are "kletter runter" and "kletter hoch" sent directly to the MUD? Or are they aliases that get picked up that execute some code?
#4
they're send directly to the MUD - they mean "climb up" and "climb down".
The error shows up while just walking around in a random direction.

Already used the client years ago within the same MUD - never had any issues.
#5
I found out the issue just occures on certain PCs.
On another one is use the numpad works fine while using the exact same configuration (saved as wold).

Alle PCs are running Windows 10 and the latest version of Mushclient.

Are you running any scripts/plugins? What leads you to think that the numpad is related?

No, i am not using any plugins or scripts within the client.

Since this is the only report of this problem that I recall, and since you say it only happens on one PC, I suspect there is some configuration issue of the PC (or background app) that is causing it.
