Windows 10: I can not open clipboard

Hi I am trying to open my clipboard by using t he Window Icon Key and "V" but it won't open. I have gone into settings and tried different things but so far no luck. I need information from my clipboard to send to someone to hopefully solve another problem. Using Windows 10 Pro on a Dell computer. Any help will be greatly appreciated. TIA Marc

New Clipboard app will not open / launch

I have installed a new app from the Store.It is

ClipBoard Fast Copy Paste and Share Pro

I have not been able open / run / launch it. I have a Desktop shortcut icon, a Taskbar icon, and a Tile in the Start Menu and have repeatedly clicked each one, selecting both Open and run as Administrator without success. As I cannot oen it I have no access to whatever help info might be there or the email address of the Developer. With regard to the latter, the app listing in the Store does not have the usual info there. I have drawn a blank from an online search, the app is listed but only takes you to the relevant Store page. Any suggestions?

 

Pasting from clipboard

Thank you, The first suggestion worked. The second did also provided I did not click in the Paint window first.

I'd spent some time trying to work it out for myself but was fooled by the clipboard window always closing prematurely. So thanks again.

Also thanks to Frederick, although solved, I've noted your alternative suggestion.

 

Clipboard not opening images

Hi Sayyada Haya,



Welcome to Microsoft Community.

Would you mind sharing more information about this issue with us?

• Are you referring to the items recorded in the clipboard history?
  

Clipboard history does not integrate functions such as "Open", "Copy" or "Move".

If the clipboard history feature itself is working properly, clicking on an item in the clipboard history will directly select the corresponding clipboard item. At the same time, the clipboard history window will automatically close.

• You can use the "Paste" option in the right-click context menu or the Ctrl + V shortcut to paste the image or text in an application that can save images (such as Word).
  
• Alternatively, you can first open the corresponding application and then directly click on the corresponding item in the clipboard history.
  
  And you can manually pin items in your clipboard history.

In addition, it should be noted that once the "Clipboard History" function is turned off, all historical items will be cleared regardless of whether they are pinned or not.

If I misunderstand your situation, feel free to correct me and share the information.
