Clipboard History a Hot Key Away

The Tip of the Night for June 19, 2019, noted that Windows 10 stores the history of text and photos copied to the clipboard. Don't miss how easy it is to access this clipboard. If you simply prese the Windows key + v, the clipboard will appear at the lower right.


Attorneys will love being able to easily access the multiple quotes they have copied and pasted into a brief from caselaw on Lexis or Westlaw.


It's also a good as a simple forensic tool to check on a user's past activities. The clipboard history tool needs to be activated. Windows 10 apparently does not have it turned on by default.
