      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.

      I’m don’t know why but I’ve never used windows clipboard manager, which is weird because I go out of my way to make sure I have one when I’m on linux
