Windows 11 Clipboard History Has Some Cool New Features
Today, we’re going to tell you about Windows 11 Clipboard history and how it’s been improved since the enhanced Clipboard was introduced with Windows 10.
First, if you have not already done so, you’ll need to turn on the enhanced Clipboard, called “Clipboard history” in Windows 11 this way:
Type CLIPBOARD in the Taskbar/Start menu search, click “Open” when you see Clipboard settings appear in the search results. Or just press “Enter”. You can also open Clipboard settings from the Settings menu. Open Settings > System > Clipboard.
When Clipboard settings opens, turn the switch next to Clipboard history “On”. If you log into other devices with the same Microsoft account you can also synchronize Clipboard history across all your devices by turning the switch next to “Sync across your devices” to the “On” position. You can fine-tune the “Sync across your devices” option by automatically or manually syncing the text you copy.
Finally, before we go on to using Windows 11 Clipboard history, you should know you can clear your Clipboard history here or directly from the Clipboard history app. See the “Clear” button in the screenshot above.
