Bug description

When the user presses a particular combination of keys, then Word copies the marked text into the clipboard. Other combinations of keys paste into the Word document the previously copied text; this often causes the creation of extremely long and useless documents or reports. The created documents often contain irrelevant information copied from documents produced for similar purposes.

How to reproduce the bug

Take a "Software Project Manager" or a "Head Manager of Analysis and Integration" or another person with a qualification that is at least 3 words long.

Ask the more than 3 words long title person to create an Analysis document related to a new project, which is similar to another project recently created by the same person or another person that has a shared folder on his PC.

99% of the paragraphs in the new document will be copies of outdated paragraphs from an older document.
