Hi,

Clipboard History is not working in my laptop. Have enabled the options in clipboard system setting, but still the history clipboard doesnt work, and always show "Nothing here, Youll see your clipboard history here once you've copied something."

Tried to restart the "clipboard User service" as well, and tried with restart of windows, but still it doesnt work.
Any help here.

Thanks in adv.

    Hi Gopalan,

    Please see if repairing the MicrosoftWindows.Client.CBS component fixes the clipboard issue.

    Launch PowerShell as administrator.

    Run the following command and press Enter:

    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers MicrosoftWindows.Client.CBS | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml" -ForceApplicationShutdown}

    Restart Windows.
