How to paste previously copied texts using Clipboard on Windows 11

Copying and pasting are one of the niftiest inventions to have helped mankind master the art of computers. It all began on computers, requiring you to press Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to copy text and paste it onto any text field. But over the past years, Microsoft has enhanced the copy-paste functionality to let us do more. Windows 11 can now remember what you copied more than once previously and let you paste any of the copied chunks. Windows calls it the Clipboard. Also Read: Windows 10 Users Alert!
