Windows 10: Is there a shortcut to paste multiple items from 'extended clipboard' without closing the...

Is there a shortcut to paste multiple items from 'extended clipboard' without closing the window in between? Say I want to post 4 or 5 different items that I've saved to the clipboard, but I don't want to have to hit Win+V in between each one. I already know about holding down 'shift' to paste plain text another feature I couldn't find, but got lucky trying things until I found it. It just seems like a natural feature for an app that allows you to hold onto multiple items, to allow you to paste multiple as well.

Is there a shortcut to paste multiple items from 'extended clipboard' without closing the window in between?

Hi, I’m Nicole, I’ll be happy to help you out today.

The extended clipboard is accessible through the Windows Clipboard History feature, which allows you to view and paste items that you have previously copied or cut.

Unfortunately, there is no built-in shortcut to paste multiple items from the Windows Clipboard History without closing the window in between. However, there are a few workarounds that you can try:

Use a third-party clipboard manager: There are several third-party clipboard managers available that allow you to copy and paste multiple items without closing the window. Some popular options include Ditto, ClipMate, and CopyQ.

Use keyboard shortcuts: Although there is no built-in shortcut to paste multiple items, you can use the keyboard shortcuts to navigate the Clipboard History window quickly. Use the Win+V shortcut to open the Clipboard History, use the arrow keys to select the item you want to paste, and then press Enter to paste it. Repeat this process for each item you want to paste.

Use a macro: If you use a macro tool like AutoHotkey, you can create a script that automatically pastes multiple items from the Clipboard History without you having to do it manually. The script could simulate the keyboard shortcuts needed to navigate the Clipboard History and paste each item in succession.

Regards.

Paste command not pasting most recent clipboard item

Hi, I'm working in Windows 10 and have a persistent problem with Copy + Paste. The problem is that the Paste command typically does not paste the most recent item from the clipboard, but rather pastes an item previously copied to the clipboard. So, for example,
I might go grab something from the web via CTRL + C, and then try to copy it into an email, only to find that the pasted material is something I previously copied, not the material I copied most recently. At that point I have to go back, re-copy the stuff
from the web, and try the paste command again. This works, but performing this sequence of steps twice most of the time is a pain in the...keyboard.

I'd welcome any suggestions. Thanks.
