I love this tool & have been using it for awhile, but, it has a limit of about 22 items. I need to move it way up. Is there a way to expand the limit, like in the registry or something? Seems strange that they didn't add this as an option.
Hi @spaceboy3101. After a quick bit of research, we’re fairly certain that the item limit for the Windows 10 clipboard remains at 25 items, as was the case when we published the video (see support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/get-help-with-clipboard-30375039-ce71-9fe4-5b30-21b7aab6b13f ) and Microsoft state “your clipboard history is limited to 25 copied entries. Older items - unless they're pinned - are removed automatically to make room for new clipboard items.” Of course, this can be limiting for power users such as yourself, and seems somewhat arbitrary, and is likely designed to avoid draining resources for the average user who may not make use of the additional functionality. Until Microsoft take the view that additional clipboard capacity would be universally welcomed, power users will probably need to source a third party clipboard manager with unlimited capacity (see www.google.com/search?q=Best+Windows+10+Clipboard+Managers&oq=Best+Windows+10+Clipboard+Managers for possibilities).
Good stuff
Thank you very much indeed.
