Tutorials Create a Shortcut to Clear Clipboard History

[WhiteLocks]

Windows allows you to create custom shortcuts for tasks you frequently perform. If you often handle sensitive and significant information through copy-pasting, it is crucial to regularly clear your clipboard. To simplify this process, you can create a shortcut to clear the clipboard history. Here’s how:

Step 1: Press the Windows + D keyboard shortcut to go to your desktop.

Step 2: Right-click in the blank space, hover the cursor to New and choose Shortcut from the context menu.

Step 3: In the ‘Type the location of the item’ section, paste the following command and click Next.

cmd /c echo.| clip

Step 4: Enter the name you want to give to the shortcut in the ‘Type a name for this shortcut’ section and click Finish.

You can quickly clear the clipboard in Windows by double-clicking the shortcut.​
