Chinese characters sometimes turned to question marks when copied to Windows clipboard, why?

Sometimes, when I copy and paste a piece of text, the Chinese characters in the text would become question marks (I believe they are not garbled, but actual question marks).

I believe this has nothing to do with font or encoding or whatever, since it can happen when I copy and paste within the same application, for example notepad, word etc.

I recorded a video to show this problem, this is so weird that I'm starting to think it's hardware related. but again is it even possible that hardware can cause such issue?

Please click her for a short 30 second video of me recreating the issue. Any hint/help would be greatly appreciated.
