About this tag
The clipboard managers tag on WindowsForum.com covers tools and features that extend the basic copy-and-paste workflow in Windows. Recent discussion highlights Edge Drop, a Microsoft Store app that adds a drag-and-drop clipboard shelf to the Windows 11 desktop, allowing users to store hundreds of copied items, preview images, sort by content type, and group related material into stacks.
