JSFL addItemToDocument OLE objects unSupported.

Hi Support Community,  using Animate 23.0.2 on Windows.

I'm using JSFL to populate my screen with .png's that are already in the library using 'addItemToDocument'. This is done through a loop and intermittently I'm receiving this error ‘Embedding OLE objects is unsupported. Use file-> import to import media.'
There is no pattern to the failure and sometimes the JSFL code works perfectly.
Thanks in advance for any help regarding this issue.
Kind regards,
Simon

    Hi Simon,

    I believe that you are experiencing the clipboard leak, described here:

    The solution is to find the offending application and close it.
