THE CLIPBOARD HISTORY

You know, it is easy to cut or copy something and paste it according to your necessary in every version of Windows. We are able to cut , copy and paste everything of windows by using below shortcut keys.

                       Copy  ➝ Ctrl + C

          Cut   ➝ Ctrl + X

          Paste ➝ Ctrl + V

But it was unable to cut , copy or paste something more than one character. By the time Windows users had wanted to cut , copy or paste more than one character. Therefore, Microsoft  introduced a new methodology called “clipboard history”.

What is the clipboard?

When you copy or cut something, windows temporarily stores the data in a special memory location called the clipboard. When you paste the information you copied, windows retrieves the content of the clipboard and puts it where you want it to go.
