Smart Cleaning NOT deleting WIN10 Clipboard data

[MKAH]

Windows 10 Pro Ver: 1909 Build: 18363.836 
- Clipboard History & Clipboard Sync Across Devices,  is set to OFF -

CCleaner Pro 5.66.7716
-Smart Cleaning-
Enable Automatic browser cleaning (on closing without notification (all browsers)) set to: ON
Enable Smart Cleaning set to: ON

When I copy text to my clipboard, eg "ABC12345", then exit my browser session (Edge Chromium)  and close all other open applications, my browser history is cleaned just as if I had manually clicked on Custom Clean, Run Cleaner.  However, when I start a new browser session, the clipboard data has not been deleted.

I have tested a number of applications (some web based, others PC based) eg: Radiant DICOM viewer ( MRI / XRay viewer), MS Word (Cloud and Local PC) , Windows10 Settings screens -Search function), Create Desktop Folder WIN10, FireFox, Chrome & Edge (Non-Chromium) all with the same results.

Manually using: Custom Clean, Run Cleaner, cleans all clipboard data, every time.

Can you give me some suggestions on correcting this problem?

If this can not be easily fixed, my suggestion would be to add a CCleaner function that would essentially overwrite the current clipboard data with something like [*****] on exit.

Thank you very much

Clipboard is partly cloud-based in Win10, so effectively cleaning it may not be possible.

Here's another not so old other topic about it:

Hi Andavari, thanks for your reply.

If this is correct, why does this method? 

Windows 10 Pro Ver: 1909 Build: 18363.836 
- Clipboard History & Clipboard Sync Across Devices,  is set to OFF -

 "Manually using: Custom Clean, Run Cleaner, cleans all clipboard data, every time."

I am hoping the CCleaner developers are working on fixing the (Enable Smart Cleaning) portion of the software, because that's the part that is not working?
 

Thank you again for your reply.
