Hi,

I want to disable the copy paste operation on files in my system. Is there a
way to disable the clipboard? Or can I write some sort of fsfilter for this?

Thanks in advance

An fsfilter will only see reads or writes, there is no concept of copy or
paste, stopping reads and writes of all files is impossible.

Impossible.

Even if you will disable this in the shell, then COPY in the command line
will work, even if you will disable COPY - then XCOPY will work, then GNU "cp"
or zip-unzip, or Total Commander, or Far Manager.

If the user have access rights to read the file - then you cannot limit
him/her in what can he do with the data. So, copying will always be possible.
