  1. How to access copy paste history when Clipboard was off.


    So i had copied some important information in Clipboard off mode. And by mistake before i could save it somewhere, I copied something else while the clipboard was Off. Now how can i access that information which was copied and pasted by me in a Microsoft edge tab which got closed by mistake.Basically i'm asking if there is a way to access Copy or Paste history when i was not using clipboard.

    :)

    clipboard history paste of most recent item fails

    Hi,

    Win10 has a newish feature "clipboard history" that you can invoke with WinKey-V. This brings up the clipboard history. So far so good. But, occasionally, the paste of the first (topmost, most recently copied) item fails to paste. Fails in all applications
    where I try to paste (Notepad, Word, etc). Even CTRL-V fails to paste it.

    Oddly enough, when the 1st item fails to paste and I paste the 2nd item on the history list, then the 2nd item pastes. Now if I Undo the 2nd paste, the 1st item does paste. Crazy.

    Does somebody understand what is going on? Am I the only one?

    Please do not recommend reinstall, /scannow and other BS.

    How on earth can it be that anything that MS does, is broken so frequently?

    br,

    Kaido

    How to access Clipboard History

    How can I access my Clipboard History, to paste something prior to the last thing I copied? I looked online for how to do this, and it looks simple. Either windows key + V or first go to Windows Settings - System - Clipboard to turn on. Neither of these
    work for me. There is no Clipboard option in Windows Settings - System, and the windows key + V does nothing. Any ideas how I can get it to work? I'm using Windows 10 Enterprise, Version 1803.

    Thank you.

  4. How to access copy paste history when Clipboard was off.

    Clipboard history not being displayed.

    Hello all!

    Currently experiencing an issue with the clipboard, in which the clipboard history is showing as empty when using the Win + V key-bind.

    Here is a list of everything I have tried in order to fix this:

    Switching the clipboard history on and off

    Clearing clipboard history

    Restarted File Explorer from Task Manager

    Restarting clipboard service in services.msc
    Creating new DWORD value in regedit

    Enabled 'Allow Clipboard History' in GPedit

    So far, nothing has shown any signs of working and I cannot find anything else online which might help with this.

    For context, copy and paste still functions normally, the only problem is, at the moment, there is absolutely no way to view the clipboard history.

    Many thanks,

    Will
