Clipboard not working after Security Update

EDIT: The update had the Security and Privacy icon (steel home with vault lock), while the last installed update (2017-001) has the High Sierra icon. So may not be 2017-001. Yet this is the last installed update.

So Installed the security update 2017-001 for mac OS X High Sierra on a MacBook Air 13" 2016 and my clipboard is broken now. Update 10.13.1 is installed.
I am admin. It is systemwide (except for GarageBand). The following were tested:

• reset
• check the 'V' and cmd button work and use the menu option.
• echo "hello" | pbcopy; pbpaste
• disable CopyClip app at start-up
• enable guest user, log-in as them
• safe mode
• killing and pkilling pboard process (sudo too). Actually using paste kills the process anyway (the launch daemon reloads it).
• freeing HDD memory as it was getting very low. Now 10/256 GB.
• zapped P-RAM
• reset SMC
• removed as many launch agents as possible
• snooped in /private/tmp

It works in recovery mode —I do not have time machine enabled or the spare memory to backup ATM.

 Launch control status –6

The best lead I have is an abort signal for the launch control:

 $ launchctl list | grep pboard
 1234 -6 com.apple.pboard
 $ id -u
 501
 $ launchctl debug gui/501/com.apple.pboard
 Configuration failed: 150: System integrity Protection is enabled 

That is the launch deamon cannot start it (-6). In recovery mode, where it works, the status is 0. System integrity protection was always enabled.
The pasteboard service (pbs) has a normal status. Dragging text works (no idea of what that service is). Another user (see below) has Sys' int' prot' disabled and has a copy paste issue.

Update environment

This section is here solely in the offchance someone has the same problem and happens to have the system similarly configured.
_{The install of the update was only slightly odd as in it did not ask to reset the machine. After accepting the update request, I proceeded to shut down stuff and Matlab was crashed. The terminal was ssh'ed into a pi and office and pycharm were open.
The previous time the machine crashed was the day before with Kerbal, a videogame that does not really work on an Air.
On the update to HighSierra my Office had the unicode bug, which was fixed by a reinstall. After which all worked fine. My Office 365 was first a pirate version then a legitimate version.
Other Microsoft related stuff are Parallels with Win 10 (untouched in months) and Paragon.
Last launch control tinkering I did was to get a NFC card reader to work.
CopyClip is an clipboard extension app.}
