    not gonna lie this is driving me nuts heres how it works for anyone who missed it like me:

    1. press Win+V. 2... click "Turn on" if it's disabled (or go to Settings > System > Clipboard).
    2. Copy a few things.
    3. press Win+V again and click the one you want to paste.

    theres a pin icon on each item, pinned items stay after a reboot. unpinned history is cleared when u restart. it showed up in the Windows 10 October 2018 Update... six years of my life copying the same email signature manually.

    On Windows 11 the Win+V panel is combined with teh emoji picker, so you get clipboard, emoji, GIFs, kaomoji and symbols tabs in one place. hope that helps :)

    oof passwords are a fair worry. Most password managers mark their copies sooo Windows doenst add them to history, but not every app does. You can clear everything from the "Clear all" button in teh Win+V panel or in Settings > System > Clipboard. good luck man!
