I'd suggest you experiment with EnumClipboardFormats() and see all the
formats actually in the clipboard - I'm guessing there is another format
preferred over CF_HDROP. Similarly, you probably want to call
EmptyClipboard so the other formats which refer to the initial image are
removed (and if you do this, you might find it unnecessary to use a
different format for your replacement image)

I tested my code today on Win 7 64 bit, and it worked almost perfect
like Tim said.
If the previous clipboard content was Text, my code works perfectly.
The failure part is:
1) Copy *Image1* from Explorer
2) Run my code to update clipboard with *Image2*
3) Paste operation in Wordpad application or Explorer ends up with only
*Image1*
Any clues please?Am i missing something?
Also how about the OleSetClipboard()? Do you guys think it will improve
my case?

Thank you very much for your time.
Thats strange. For the login user, i think its same. In my
Taskmanager, under User tab, both the processes are running under
same user.
I also tried to run my script from command prompt with Admin
previlege. Still same, i cannot paste the file in Explorer.
Also, i found out another problem in my code. I can paste the image
in Wordpad application only if the last clipboard content was text.
If the last one was image, i cannot paste my new image. It pastes
only the old image.

I am trying to copy an image file to windows clipboard using
my code and paste it manually in any folder in windows
explorer. I am using *Windows 8* *64bit *laptop, running
*Python 2.7 *and*pywin32-218* for win32 APIs
I managed to paste my file in Wordpad application. But, i
cannot paste inside windows explorer. The Paste menu is
disabled. Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.
I'm confused. I just ran your exact code on Win 7 64 with
Python 2.7.5 32, unchanged except for the file name, and it
worked perfectly.
Is the script running as the same login user as Explorer?
