With Windows 10 October 2018 update, Microsoft Added the much-awaited cloud-powered clipboard feature (was demoed during Build 2017 keynote). The new clipboard experience in Windows 10 is powered by Microsoft’s cloud technology which means that you can access your clipboard across any PC. Which will be really helpful when you often paste the same content multiple times a day or want to paste across devices.
