I tried it on Windows 10 and got this:

 >>> from win32clipboard import *
 >>> OpenClipboard()
 >>> SetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT, "A")
1830508101640
 >>> CloseClipboard()
 >>> OpenClipboard()
 >>> SetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT, "0")
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
pywintypes.error: (6, 'SetClipboardData', 'The handle is invalid.')
 >>> CloseClipboard()

It looks like it's something to memory ownership:

If you're putting text on the clipboard, why not just use 
SetClipboardText()? That's what I do.
