Copying and pasting is one of the most essential functions while working. And where you used to need a clipboard manager to store multiple items, Windows 10 now has clipboard history. Still, the free Clipboard Master tool has a few more functions.

An installation wizard first guides you through a number of options. First it asks if you want to use the standard, simple or professional configuration. If you are not that experienced, we recommend the simple setting, because Clipboard Master is overloaded with smart functions. Then you choose a hotkey to call up the clipboard and at the end you can print an overview of hotkeys and flexikeys. Hotkeys are regular shortcut keys and flexikeys are shortcut keys that only work in specific situations. The tool also has shortcut keys to complete words or sentences.
Multi-copy
With this tool you can store up to 10,000 items. Then we are talking about text, numbers, formulas, images, files and folders. And to ensure that you quickly get to the right item, there is a built-in filter that calls up certain data such as text or images. For example, if you want to use the data of multiple cells in Excel in a Word document, you can first copy all cells from Excel and then switch to Become to paste the copied content at once. In addition, you can indicate that the text must always be separated by a space, a new line, a tab or another character. All copied items remain available even after the computer is turned off.
Extras
In addition, this clipboard manager has some interesting extras. This makes it possible to take screenshots directly from the program. In addition, the tool has a password vault that works like a regular password manager. This function encrypts your passwords and places them without you having to type. As an extra layer of protection, this password manager works with a master password. Finally, Clipboard Master contains a number of intelligent text templates for letters and e-mails that, for example, automatically adopt the correct date. These standard texts are in English, but you can also add your own text templates.
Conclusion
Clipboard Master may not be the easiest to use, but it is one of the most powerful clipboard managers out there. The broad functionality is the strength, but at the same time the weakness of this tool, because the tool sometimes comes across as overwhelming.
