    Trying to enable Clipboard History but the option is missing


    According to https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/4464215,

    To turn your clipboard on for the first time, select Windows logo key + V, and then select Turn on.

    However, nothing happens when I do Win-V. Moreover, the Clipboard settings window at Settings > System > Clipboard mentioned on https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/4028529/windows-10-clipboard is missing for me.


    I'm running Windows 10 Home, version 1803, and I just installed the latest update (KB4512501).

    :)

    Cannot Enable Clipboard History in Windows 10 Pro


    Here is what is going on. Today I went to check out clipboard history using windows key + V and nothing happened. It didn't give me the popup saying it wasn't on, nor did it show me the history I had.

    I went to Start > Settings > System and Clipboard was missing from the choices available.

    I checked in gpedit.msc under Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > OS Policies. There was no Allow clipboard history option.

    I tried to use the reg file from Enable or Disable Clipboard History in Windows 10 and even checked the reg key (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System) to make sure that there was no AllowClipboardHistory with a 0 setting.

    Any help would be great did I perhaps miss something and they went ahead and removed the feature since they had initiated it?


    TIA

    clipboard

    Hello,

    In Windows 10 build 17666 or later, clipboard is available.

    Try these steps

    1. Right click Start Button or press Windows + X keys and select Settings.

    2. In the Settings app, navigate to System > Clipboard.

    3. Under Clipboard, toggle the Save multiple items option to On. This should enable clipboard history on the go.

    4. Close Settings app.

    You can now press Windows + V keys to view clipboard history.

    Hope this helps!
