Working with multiple pieces of copied content at the same time, quotes for an article, addresses for a mailing list, code snippets while debugging, requires storing more than Windows' native single-item clipboard can hold.
Gwen stores multiple copied items automatically, running in the system tray and capturing text, images, files, and hex colors as you work. Up to 200 items are stored by default, adjustable in preferences, so you have real room to accumulate multiple pieces of content before anything gets trimmed.
Accessing your multiple stored items happens through Ctrl+Shift+V, opening a popup listing everything newest-first. Select whichever item you need, and it pastes back automatically, letting you work through multiple items in sequence without losing track of the others.
Storing multiple items doesn't mean sacrificing clarity: each entry is automatically sorted by type, with images shown as thumbnails and hex colors shown as live swatches, so even a large stored collection stays easy to scan visually.
Smart duplicate detection keeps your multiple stored items from filling up with repeats, and live search lets you filter down to a specific one instantly, even when you've accumulated dozens of items throughout a busy work session.
Everything runs entirely offline. Your multiple stored items stay on your own PC, with the app's only network call being a one-time license check. Developers copying snippets, commands, and error messages; writers and editors juggling quotes and references; designers pulling hex colors and image assets; support and admin staff pasting the same canned responses and details repeatedly; researchers collecting excerpts from many sources; and anyone on Windows who copies and pastes enough that losing a clip is a daily annoyance all find the same underlying capability useful. Under the hood, a background thread checks Windows' clipboard-change counter a few times a second, and only reads what changed when that counter actually moves, which is what keeps the whole thing feeling instant rather than sluggish, however long it's been quietly running in your system tray.

How many items can be stored at once?
Up to 200 by default, adjustable in preferences; older items beyond that limit are trimmed automatically.
Can I store images alongside text and files?
Yes, text, images, files, and hex colors are all captured and stored automatically as you copy them.
Is it easy to find one specific item among many stored ones?
Yes, live search filters your stored items instantly as you type.
Does storing many items slow the app down?
No, the underlying storage is a lightweight local SQLite database, and access remains fast regardless of how many items are stored.
Does this work on both Windows 10 and Windows 11?
Yes, Gwen is built and tested for both Windows 10 and Windows 11.
Is my clipboard data safe when using this app?
Yes, everything is stored locally on your own PC; nothing is uploaded or synced, so your copied content stays fully private.
Can I change the default hotkey if Ctrl+Shift+V conflicts with something else?
Yes, the global hotkey is configurable in preferences and takes effect immediately once changed.
Does the app work the same across every Windows application?
Yes, the global hotkey and paste-back mechanism operate at the system level, so behavior is consistent whether you're in a browser, an editor, a terminal, or any other Windows application.
Does the app show a preview for copied files, not just text and images?
Yes, file copies from Explorer are recorded as their path, or a "3 files" style summary for multiple selections.
Is there a trial version available before buying?
Check the product page on turbo-soft.com for current trial availability and details.
Can I use this alongside other clipboard-related tools?
Yes, since Gwen works passively through the standard Windows clipboard, it doesn't conflict with most other clipboard-aware applications running at the same time.
Will future updates change how my existing history is stored?
Check for Updates in the About section keeps you on the latest version, and your local history database persists across updates.
