CTRL + V With “Memory” 

Have you ever copied something on your computer with the intent to paste it somewhere else, then got distracted and did another task, losing the original “CTRL + C”?

💡 Did You Know…?

🧠 Windows has a “memory” of the items you’ve copied to the “clipboard,” which you can access with the keyboard combo Windows Key + V. It displays a list of the items you’ve copied and lets you choose a specific item to paste.
