Clipboard might be one of the most used features in Windows. It’s become so common today to hit Command + C to copy data and followed by Command + V to paste it to other apps. Unfortunately, using this method only the last copied data is available. Every time you do Command + C, the previous data is overwritten. To tackle this limitation, since Windows 10 there is a new feature called Clipboard History that can keep up to 25 entries of data in clipboard.

How to enable Clipboard History?

Go to Settings > System > Clipboard or search for “clipboard settings” with search box in the taskbar. Here you can find the option for enabling the Clipboard History.

Clipboard history is now turned on. You can now close Settings and use the feature in any application.

How to access Clipboard History?
