If this sounds like your week
You copied something an hour ago. Windows already forgot it.
The built-in clipboard (Win+V) caps history at 25 items and wipes everything on reboot unless you opt into cloud sync. So the snippet, link, or address you copied earlier is just gone — overwritten by the next copy or cleared by a restart — and there's no way to search for it.
Where tooling usually breaks
A clipboard that forgets is a clipboard you can't trust.
You start pasting things into a scratch document "just in case," or re-finding the same URL for the third time. That's not a workflow — it's working around a tool that throws away the one thing you needed to keep.
