Clippy Description
Clippy is a simple-to-use application that monitors your Clipboard to keep track of all copied items. It offers support for text and images. The tool features intuitive options that can be tackled even by less skilled users.
Simple setup with systray integration
The setup procedure doesn't take long and the only notable aspect about it is that it requires you to install .NET Framework, as it was developed with the aid of this platform.
As far as the interface goes, the utility creates an icon in the systray area at startup and sits there minimized, showing notification messages every time you copy something to the Clipboard.
View Clipboard history and reuse clips
The current Clipboard storage can be brought up to the screen by triggering the Ctrl+Shift+V key combination. You can preview the contents of each clip, including the thumbnails of photos, as well as double-click an entry to make it the active clip and paste into your programs.
There's also an option implemented for pasting all items. Alternatively, you can remove an entry from the list or clear the entire queue to empty Clipboard history. After clicking the tray icon, you can instruct Clippy to hide notifications and to automatically run at every system startup until further notice.
Evaluation and conclusion
We haven't come across any stability issues in our tests, thanks to the fact that the tool didn't freeze, crash or prompt error messages. It left a small footprint on system resources usage, since it needed a low amount of CPU and RAM to work properly.
Worth noting is that, if you want to reuse a clip containing an image, Clippy doesn't paste the full photo, but only its thumbnail (in the way it's presented in the history panel). When copying files or folders, it records their full paths. No recent updates have been made.
