Windows 7 Clipboard History

Windows 7 has not provided no tool to log clipboard history. This is a serious setback, since clipboard history can be a integral part of many people’s productivity(including mine). There are many 3rd party clipboard programs which can monitor clipboard activity, among them is the much liked Clipdiary.

But if you are looking for an alternative clipboard tool for Windows 7, meet Clipboard History. This is a recently launched tool that will keep a log of every word/text that you copy to the clipboard.

clipboard history

It is not much advanced like Clipdiary but allows user to quickly copy their previous word/text from the start menu tray. You can set it to startup at login, set the program to run in notepadmode, clear log, hide tray(and bring it back by hitting z+x+c hotkey), stop logging, and export entries.

Download Clipboard History (Download Mirror, use the 2nd link)

It works perfectly on Windows 7 and can also work with Windows Vista and Windows XP. Enjoy!

    It's odd, but this link to the author's (Christian Dunn) site doesn't work for me either, and his site doesn't have any information about the program. I did some Google searches (“Clipboard History” +CDunn), and what's even stranger is that I found his program on a few freeware download sites, and some of them listed the program as titled “Clipboard Historian.” But none of the freeware site download links worked either, even though they listed the app was just added on Oct 16, 2009.

    However, I was able to find a working link to a mirror via Google's cached pages:

    http://www.freewarefiles.com/downloads_counter….

    The first download link on that page won't work, since it points to the developer's site. Use the second link, which is a mirrored copy hosted by the freeware site.

    I wonder why this guy pulled his app offline everywhere only a couple days after posting it…

    Hey Josh, Thanks for providing the mirror. I wonder why the developer took it down, perhaps his server could not handle the load or perhaps some other reason.

    I have now added this mirror in the post.

    emdma is a spam blog and I have tried many times to report it to Google Webmaster. It would be grateful if you folks could do the same, mark the spammers as spammers, they deserve it anyway.

    Most spam blogs have a script running which automatically copies the whole RSS feed post and paste them into their spammy blogs, irrespective of HTML. So this spam blog copied my post and the link as well which redirected to my own site ofcourse.

    Coudent you put a trap in your rss to end up on a page that basically say's ” what you were reading was written by me and the site you were on is just a <del>troll</del> guy tring to make money from my content and I would not trust him with anything especially when it comes to sending him money for anything .

    I haven't tried this but this stealing content is quite common in blogosphere(millions of spammy blogs). If you know about a method that helps in preventing this, email me. ;)

    you could try putting this in your template it stops people from highlighting text

    <script language=”JavaScript1.2″>

    function disableselect(e){
    return false
    }

    function reEnable(){
    return true
    }

    document.onselectstart=new Function (”return false”)

    if (window.sidebar){
    document.onmousedown=disableselect
    document.onclick=reEnable
    }
    </script>
