Hey there tech enthusiasts! We’ve all been there – that frustrating moment when you’re trying to copy-paste stuff in Microsoft Office, and bam, you get hit with the “Your organization’s data cannot be pasted here” error. Fear not! I’ve got your back with this easy-to-follow guide to fix this annoying glitch. Here are five cool tricks for both Windows and Mac users.
List of fixes
1. Tweak the Intune app protection policy
So, Microsoft Intune is playing hard to get with your data, huh? No worries! If you have admin powers, let’s tweak those settings. Head over to the Microsoft Intune dashboard, find the App protection policies, and dive into the Data Transfer settings. If the admin gatekeepers are holding you back, drop them an access line. If you are an administrator in the portal you can modify changes and have everything under control in seconds, but do discuss with your seniors before doing it. Let us understand in steps…
- Go to Microsoft Intune dashboard.
- Click on“apps” on your left sidebar.
- Now click on “app protection policies”.
- Now move to the ‘data transfer’ option.
- Now you need to set the “restrict cut copy and paste in other apps” to any app.
If you are accessing the administrator’s dashboard and you see no policy you can create one yourself. Let me help you with the steps:
- Start with clicking on ‘create policy’ after you click on apps.
- After this move to settings.
- Click on Data Protection and Data Transfer options.
- Set the restrict cut copy and paste in other apps’ to any app.

Sometimes, all your computer needs is a little reboot therapy. Save your work, hit that restart button for Windows or slap the restart option on your Mac, and let the magic happen. Just make sure your masterpiece is safely tucked away before the digital nap. To reboot you need to just restart your PC.
