Best Answer

The system clipboard is a temporary storage location where information such as text or images are stored. It is loaded when a "copy" or "cut" is selected either with a menu or keyboard selection (such as control-s or control-x). Information can be retrieved multiple times with a "paste' or control-v selection.

Information is maintained in the clipboard until it is replaced with another copy or cut selection or until it is reset by starting a new user session.
