Right now that seems to only be Windows 10 on this insider build or newer, but I’d expect it to go further to mobile devices when released properly. You can enable that in the same settings area, and your clipboard will be available from all devices that support it.
On top of this, there’s also a ‘Sync across devices’ option for the clipboard history. Text and images are both supported which is great! Selecting the history item will immediately paste it as well as put it onto your clipboard. It will be blank at the start, unless you’ve used the clipboard since enabling the feature. Once that option is on, you can use Windows Key + V to bring up the clipboard history window: This is probably good being off by default, I can imagine complaints about Microsoft tracking what people do or someone finding something in the history that another person did. You’ll need to toggle the ‘Save multiple items’ to ‘On’. I’ve had a quick play and like it… so how does it work?įirst, go into Settings > System > Clipboard. I might be a bit late to the party – on May 9th 2018, Build 17666 was announced with this feature. However, if a native solution does enough for me I’d rather use that – I’m on that many different systems and devices, having non-native apps is a pain that I’m not going to bother with. I currently use Ditto which I recommended in another writeup of free sysadmin tools for TechTarget. Something I’ve been wanting for many years. However, I saw this notification come up which seemed very useful Clipboard History! I play with and use Windows 10 Insider builds but don’t often blog about them – there’s plenty of other people that do that already.
