    I think windows+v syncs to microsoft servers or something. I remember when I was running chris titus tech’s debloat script it removed that functionality.

      I googled it, there is an option to sync it to your Microsoft account, but I can’t say whether that’s on by default when you turn on clipboard history because I skipped adding a Microsoft account. But if it is, you can turn it off in Settings -> System -> Clipboard.

      An excellent option to have when one of the major use cases for clipboards is as an intermediary for password managers.

      I hope they eventually get sued into the fucking ground.

        Password managers should mark their clipboard data as sensitive and clean it up. Use a proper password manager and there won’t be issues.
