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.

      Y: the key with the windows logo on it.

      O: you mean the windows key?

      Y: You should know, it’s called the super key, or the metakey

      O: …

          Bruh, try to have at least some social awareness. Nobody wants to be around a “well achually…” person.

      It’s called the Super key on Linux. On Windows it’s called the Windows key and on Mac the Command key.
