HELP: How to find and delete clipboard files in Android

[Political Season]

I have a Note 9. Running the latest Android update available, but this issue predates the upgrade. I have some text saved to the clipboard in secure folder and which I locked. It is currently visible in the clipboard list outside of secure folder and I cannot unlock it so that it can be deleted. The unlock option is visible but greyed out and cannot be selected.

I cannot see the clipboard item when in secure folder, only outside of it.

So, I'd like to find where the clipboard files are stored in Android and just delete them altogether. How do I find them?

Clipboard information is stored on RAM

You can go to apps list find secure folder and clear data ,cache,,force stop it will reset it and erase everthing

If I go that route, does that mean everything I have in secure folder gets erased?

Everthing , if you have made a back up in your Samsung account you can restore if not they will be gone .

I usually clear my clipboard items either from my Gboard(or rarely used Samsung) keyboard or from my clipboard edge app (which you don't seem to have)

I have those things. The problem is that this item was locked and now I can no longer unlock it for some reason. The unlock option is greyed out. Since I can't unlock it, I can't clear it. And with clipboard items stored in RAM, there are no files I can go in and delete to get rid of it. Every other item in my clipboard behaves normally. I can lock and unlock anything else on the clipboard, just not this item.

I believe I created it in secure folder and somehow its gotten locked in some inbetween state where I can view it on the clipboard outside of secure folder, but I can't manipulate it, and when I return to secure folder, it's not visible on the clipboard at all.

Have you tried just clearing the Secure Folder cache?
