If I may chime in, if the JRE/JDK and NetBeans are the same and the problem isn't reproducible then I would suggest first determining what might be different between this user's environment and others where the problem doesn't present itself. For example, confirming that this user's NetBeans isn't inside of a container like Docker or AppImage that might be sitting between the Windows clipboard <-> NetBeans and preventing clipboard transfers as part of some sort of security policy. This may not be the case, but it seems like a suspect to eliminate in any case.

Just to make sure it does not make Windows Clipboard usability worse. Also as this is a platform code, tests NetBeans running on JDK 8 are welcome as well.
