<snipped> This now wedges and is not interruptible with Ctrl-C, but closing the CMD window kills everything. Task Manager shows that putclip is apparently stuck in a loop waiting for something to happen as the counts in "I/O Other" and "I/O Other bytes" keep increasing at a regular rate (should a timeout error be incorporated, perhaps?)
You don't need to kill the whole terminal session, open up another one and kill the rogue putclip with kill(1) or pskill (from systernals). Could even use procexp (from systernals) without having to open a new term.
