Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro It's reliable, fast and quick
It just works...always. It's fast and quick, which can save you thousands of hours.
Pro Very configurable
You can set all sorts of things from size of database to size of individual clips, types of objects to copy/paste, which hotkeys to use etc.
Pro Scriptable clips
Clips can be used/changed with scripts during copy or paste.
Pro Screen capture
Pro Stable and reliable
Pro Proper Shortcut Keys
This is, even in 2020, the only clipboard manager that allows you to set "Back" and "Next" clip keys, so you don't have to open the manager to change your selection.
Pro Clipbar toolbar
The Clipbar shows the last clip text and allows shortcut access to other commands for scree capture, etc
Pro Clip backup/archive
Cons
Con Uninstaller removes nothing
After uninstalling removal of almost every file manually from different directories is still necessary since the actual uninstaller only displays "other files still remain".
Con Minimizes after each paste
You have to activate it twice to paste twice.
Con Does not support HDPI displays
On high DPI/resolution displays, the UI is very small. Practically unusable.
Con RTF bug is still present in latest Beta version
You can turn on the option to draw RTF text in the clip list, but it no longer works in Windows 10 Ditto (64bit), and the latest Beta version available today - which claims to have fixed the bug - still has the same bug. It will no longer draw RTF text as-is in the clip list.
Con The UI is very confusing
Con Can't use any shortcut you wish
Anything with spacebar, windows key (that the system also uses) is not possible.
Con Portable version will remove all clipboard record once it is updated to newer version
Con Unicode not supported
Con Clipbar toolbar
The current edition of Win11 does not allow the use of toolbars in the Taskbar area. However, the program still remains one of the top clipboard utilities.
