Excel 2016 Clipboard problem message

I have recently upgraded from Office 2010 to Office 2016.  My operating system is Windows 10.
In Excel 2016, I randomly get the following message when copying & pasting cells from one range to another:

"There's a problem with the clipboard, but you can still paste your content within this workbook"

So far it appears to complete the 'Paste' function correctly, but it is frustrating to be interrupted with having to click 'OK' on this dialog box before continuing.
It does this while running VB routines also, which can be confusing to the user.

Is that any way to disable or avoid this Dialog box?

That is an issue that I receive occasionally, the only solution that I have found is to manually clear the clipboard

Open the clipboard from the Ribbon's Home Tab (extreme left of the tab)
