Tech Tip – Use Windows Clipboard History to Paste Safely, or Clear It

Clipboard history makes copying and pasting quicker, but it can also store sensitive info you may not want to leave behind.

How to Enable:

– Press Windows + V, then select ‘Turn on’.

How to Clear History:

– Press Windows + V, click ‘Clear all’.
– Or go to Settings > System > Clipboard and click ‘Clear’.

What it’s for:

Makes copying multiple items easy while allowing you to erase any private or confidential items in seconds.

Pro‑Tip: Clipboard history clears automatically on restart (unless you’ve pinned items) but clearing manually adds extra peace of mind.
