Title: How to recover Copy & Paste?
Post by: Chris Thomas on February 17, 2012, 10:00:54 AM
I know there isn't a way  :-X

Or is there?

I was talking to my teacher on the phone about my projects and she was telling me the minor mistakes in my project and I was typing it in the address bar of my firefox, after I hung up the phone, I copied it, but I forgot about it that I copied another text and lost it.

So I am  :-X

You cannot recover the previous copy & pace if you may a mistaken by start copying from second around, cause the previous round will automatic get deleted.

Do you understand ??? and I wouldn't worried to much about :-X

Is there any way to prevent things like this from happening?

Too late to reverse the error that's already happened.


Time to make sure it doesn't happen again.  :)

hmm ... can't reproduce that now  :-\ ... happened quite a few times here, stuff copied from Firefox can't be pasted once FF is closed (cleared from clipboard), whether private data was cleared when closing or not. But now I can ... anyway, once the clipboard has been cleared, there's no way to recover anything.

edit: well, unless Bob's solution is workable, never tried that.

Avast detects the Softonic downloader and blocks it.

And the IE Smartscreen filter says the first one of the others is not well known and may be dangerous. I got it anyway.

Clipboard managers are  a dime a dozen, many choices.

I have even made a crude one in AutoHotkey.

The key issue is that the clipboard manager program is running when you copy...otherwise you are back to square one.

FWIW, when I do use one, I generally use Ditto Portable: http://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/ditto_portable

I'm trying out Clipboard Magic and it works pretty well. I don't how many times in the past I've wished I had something like this. I set it to start with Windows and reside in the system tray. It only takes 476kb of memory so it's very light.

Clipboard Magic works very well. It saves everything you copy to the clipboard and has a lot of configuration options. You can make it start with Windows, run in the tray, automatically save the current clip list when you shut down and load that same list when you start back up. So if you reboot, you don't lose anything. 

It really works great for text. To retrieve a clip, you just click it in the tray and it shows the list. You then click on the one you want and then that is the one that will be pasted. It will be set to the last thing copied by default. If you clear the list, then your saved list will also be cleared when you shut down unless you do a separate manual save under a different file name. You can have as many lists saved as you want and choose to load them. I like it so much that I haven't even tried the other two that were mentioned.

I ended up with M8 Free Multi Clipboard

It is updated often unlike the other programs that were like updated like in 2009 or 2008 and so on
http://m8software.com/clipboards/freeclip/freeclip.htm

It also saves screen capture program as well as a clipboard manager.

I makes sound every time you copy something as well. It has so many features as well like Auto cleaning, Year planner and so on.

 :)

The rest programs were nice too  ;)

Thanks everyone  :)

I won't be loosing anymore texts and having this sort of problem  8)

Funny thing, we don't have an inbuilt clipboard manager in Windows yet although we copy often our conversations and other things.

Both that one and the one suggested by bioxx750 do more than what I need. For me Clipboard Magic is the one. It's very light and works very well.
