Description

ClipboardHistory is an extension that enables clipboard history in Visual Studio. It keeps track of all changes to the clipboard in a configurable list using a Tool Window. You can then navigate the list to retrieve the desired clipboard data.

I developed this extension for my own needs, feel free to contribute if you can improve it.
Visit the project's Github page for more details.
