We all know that some perfectly good Windows 10 PCs can't be upgraded to Windows 11.

Clipboard history is a useful productivity feature that can help you save lots of time in a workday by ensuring the various items that you copy/cut — from snippets of text to URLs — are all easily accessible at later points, even if you copy/cut more stuff in the interim. Notably, the clipboard history feature is not enabled by default in Windows 10 and Windows 11. You will need to enable it first by visiting the Clipboard section of Settings. On Android, there is no clipboard history built into the stock operating system; however, you can get it by using a first-party keyboard app (Samsung Keyboard) or installing a third-party keyboard app (Gboard, SwiftKey) that supports the features.

Here's How To Find Your Clipboard History (Windows, Android)

If your inbox is overflowing with unread newsletters and spammy emails that made it past your filter, you can take action to preserve all your important missives while starting afresh with a new inbox.

But now that I’ve tried it a little, I have answers, and I can say this much: it’s better than I expected, but I wouldn’t count on it for too much.

Intel has shared more about the voltage-related issues that affected some 13th- and 14th-generation Core processors, as the company tries to put the episode behind it. As reported by Tom's Hardware, Intel says that the problem originated with "elevated operating voltage" stemming from "incorrect voltage requests," specifically an increase to the minimum operating voltage of the chips. These "elevated voltage events can accumulate over time," eventually damaging the processor and causing system hangs or crashes.
