While opening a file with gvim, gvim exits/crashes when Clipboard is enabled in System Tray. However this does not happen with every file, and the file it crashes with may change.

I checked with gvim 8.0.1453, it was not crashing. If this happens again, please send more detailed information, including exact steps how to reproduce. It is probably a good idea to report this bug to gvim team.
