Whoa. Looks like this issue is going on since last October, with no resolution offered from Microsoft! I have the same problem. So far I was dealing with the annoying "There is a problem with the Clipboard..." message -- even if Excel 2016 was the only open program on my Windows 10 Pro PC at that time. Today, I find that even drag-and-drop copying is not working as expected. To be sure, the drag and drop works, but the selection and the cursor become non-responsive for several seconds. The only way I can get them to respond seems to be either click on another Excel file, or click on the Preview in the taskbar to get back to the same file.
The repair of Office programs did not work at all, and so far on my computer, this weird issue is restricted to Excel 2016 only (Version 1805; Build 9330.2087 Click-to-run).
