How to Disable Your Clipboard History in Windows 10

As of 2018, Windows 10 includes a useful cloud clipboard feature that gives you access to the last 25 items you copied, including text and low-resolution images (up to 4MB).

How to Enable or Disable Windows 10 Clipboard History
Windows 10 isn't the best when it comes to privacy, with invasive telemetry, location tracking, and other sensitive data automatically recorded by Microsoft. Fortunately, your clipboard history is not one of them: this feature (although it can be useful) is disabled by default.

To enable it (or disable it, if you wish), you will need to open the Windows Settings menu. To do this, right-click on the Start menu and tap on the Settings option.

In the Settings window, tap System – Clipboard. To turn this feature on or off, tap the Clipboard history slider to the On or Off position.

Enabling the Windows 10 clipboard will enable the feature immediately. If you want to sync your clipboard history across other Windows devices, tap the Sync across devices slider to the On position.

Once enabled, you will be able to access your history by pressing the Windows V keys on your keyboard. The Clipboard panel will appear directly above the taskbar notifications area in the lower right corner.

If you decide to disable the clipboard, Windows will erase all items stored there (including pinned items). Any other items you save to your clipboard will overwrite the last one. This returns your maximum clipboard history to one item, instead of the 25 items saved with this feature enabled.
