Why YSK: Suppose, you want to copy multiple parts of texts from different documents to a single document. You can copy all of them and paste one by one by bringing up the clipboard history. This is one of the many useful cases of a clipboard history.
Here’s how to do it:
Step 1: From the Windows Start menu, go to “Settings” and then “System”. Go to the gear icon for “Settings” in the Windows Start menu and directly after that go to “System”.
Step 2: Click “Clipboard” in the left sidebar and set the toggle at “Clipboard history” to “On”.
This works in only Windows 10 and 11.
You can use keepass in multiple ways where the password never touches the clipboard. I usually use it with a Firefox extension that fills in the fields. You can also have it swap back to your last window and autotype (not sure exactly what the mechanism is).
If you do copy, it clears it from the clipboard history ~10s after copying. I’m pretty sure that’s configurable.
KeePassXC has an autotype shortcut of Crtl+Shift+V which is good when dealing with remote systems
