I noticed at the bottom of `gui-set-selection': Note that on MS-Windows, primary and secondary selections set by Emacs are not available to other programs.

How do you ever copy anything? I still don't really understand why it is an issue for ox-clip unless what is really happening is evil messes up the active region which is exported by org-mode. The ox-clip command doesn't touch the emacs clipboard at all I think. It only uses system commands to put stuff on the system clipboards (which are not directly visible to emacs in the first place). The ox-clip commands don't currently copy anything you can paste back into emacs. I have debated doing that, but it adds a noticeable lag for the copy command since an org-export is involved, and if you are pasting back to emacs that is not needed. A solution would be a new copy command that just does a regular copy all the time, but with a prefix arg does a formatted copy for pasting elsewhere. I just use two different key bindings now. M-w for copy, and H-k for formatted copy. > > Then here comes another bug: > > I’m testing on a Chinese org file.
